About
Dr. Jennifer Stone is a leading researcher at the intersection of educational robotics, human-robot interaction, and rehabilitation engineering. Her work is defined by a dual focus: understanding how children learn and collaborate through robotics, and developing robotic systems to aid motor recovery after stroke. In her influential 2014 study (71 citations), Stone provided foundational insights into how collaborative robotics projects foster teamwork and STEM engagement in elementary and middle school students. She further advanced this area by constructing a model of how children build engineering design knowledge within robotics contexts (2015). Simultaneously, Stone has made significant contributions to neurorehabilitation, investigating how robotic path assistance and weight support can facilitate complex 3D movements for individuals with poststroke hemiparesis (2020). Her research uniquely bridges developmental learning and assistive technology, demonstrating how robotic systems can both educate young minds and restore motor function in clinical populations. Stone’s work continues to shape the design of educational curricula and therapeutic interventions, highlighting the transformative potential of robotics across the lifespan.
