About
George Papathanasiou is a leading researcher in neurorehabilitation engineering, with a primary focus on restoring upper limb function after stroke. His work bridges the gap between assistive robotics and immersive digital therapies, particularly through the development of the Rehabotics system—a novel exoskeletal aid integrated with augmented reality (AR) games. In his landmark pilot randomized control study (2025, 4 citations), Papathanasiou demonstrated how this combined approach can significantly reduce spasticity and improve hand function in post-stroke patients, offering a more engaging and effective alternative to conventional therapy. His contributions are reshaping rehabilitation protocols by making them both data-driven and patient-centered, with the potential to accelerate recovery and enhance quality of life. Papathanasiou’s research is widely recognized for its translational impact, and he continues to pioneer accessible, technology-driven solutions that empower clinicians and patients alike.
