About

Marco Caimmi is a leading researcher in neuro-rehabilitation robotics, with a focus on restoring motor function after stroke. His work bridges engineering and clinical neuroscience, developing robotic systems and predictive tools for upper limb and ankle-foot rehabilitation. Caimmi’s major contributions include designing the PKankle, a novel spherical parallel robot for ankle-foot neuro-rehabilitation (65 citations), and demonstrating that quantitative EEG can predict upper limb motor recovery in chronic stroke patients undergoing robot-assisted therapy (87 citations). He has also advanced human-robot cooperation in industrial settings, optimizing impedance controllers with embedded safety rules (63 citations). Notably, his research on voice-controlled assistive robotic arms (23 citations) addresses usability for highly impaired patients, while his studies on muscular synergies and proprioceptivity provide insights into motor re-learning. With over 300 total citations, Caimmi’s work is pivotal in personalizing rehabilitation, predicting outcomes, and enhancing human-robot interaction, making him a key figure in translating robotic technologies into effective clinical practice.
