About
Minxia Jin is a leading researcher in neurorehabilitation, focusing on brain–computer interfaces (BCIs) and non-invasive brain stimulation to restore motor function after stroke. Her work centers on how targeted neuromodulation—particularly transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS)—can prime the brain for recovery, enhancing the effects of physiotherapy in patients with hemiparetic upper limb impairments. In her highly cited 2022 study (28 citations), she demonstrated that BCI-robot training significantly improves upper extremity performance in chronic stroke patients, using functional near-infrared spectroscopy to reveal measurable cortical activation changes in the primary motor cortex (M1). This work provided crucial evidence for experience-dependent neuroplasticity driven by closed-loop BCI systems. Her 2024 protocol for a randomized controlled trial on tDCS priming in subacute stroke further underscores her systematic approach to optimizing recovery windows. By bridging neural engineering and clinical rehabilitation, Jin’s research offers scalable, evidence-based interventions that could transform post-stroke care, making her a pivotal figure in the field of restorative neurology.
