About
Martina Coscia is a prominent researcher at the intersection of neurorehabilitation engineering, robotics, and human motor control, with particular expertise in stroke recovery and assistive neurotechnology. Her work has fundamentally advanced our understanding of how robotic and neurotechnology-based interventions can restore motor function in neurologically impaired patients, including those with severe chronic stroke and multiple sclerosis. Among her most influential contributions is a comprehensive 2019 review on neurotechnology-aided upper limb rehabilitation in severe stroke survivors, which has accumulated over 214 citations and stands as a key reference in the field. Her early investigations into muscle synergies following acute stroke (2013, 104 citations) helped clarify how intensive neurorehabilitation reshapes neural motor control strategies. Coscia has also made significant strides in exoskeleton development and evaluation — from upper limb devices to gait rehabilitation systems — demonstrating their clinical potential while rigorously characterizing their biomechanical effects. Her 2018 work on robot-based assessment of multiple sclerosis motor deficits (91 citations) exemplifies her commitment to precision diagnostics. More recently, she has championed personalized, adaptive robotic therapy protocols, pushing the field toward individualized treatment. With a citation profile exceeding 780 across a decade of research, Coscia's work continues to shape the future of technology-driven neurorehabilitation.
