About
Ilaria Clerici is a leading researcher in neurorehabilitation, with a focused expertise in movement disorders, particularly progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) and Parkinson’s disease. Her major contributions center on evaluating the effectiveness of multidisciplinary rehabilitative treatments for PSP, a condition with no known medical or surgical cure. In her most-cited work (57 citations), she demonstrated that patients with PSP can benefit from tailored rehabilitation strategies, including robot-assisted walking training—a novel approach adapted from Parkinson’s disease therapies. This research has been instrumental in shifting clinical perspectives toward non-pharmacological interventions for atypical parkinsonism, offering tangible improvements in mobility and quality of life. Clerici’s work is widely recognized for bridging the gap between traditional rehabilitation and advanced assistive technologies, with her findings cited across neurology and physiotherapy literature. Her studies provide critical evidence that structured, multidisciplinary programs can yield meaningful functional gains, even in neurodegenerative conditions previously deemed untreatable. For students and researchers, Clerici’s research exemplifies how rigorous clinical investigation can expand therapeutic horizons for rare and challenging disorders.
