About
Dr. Nawel Ouendi is a leading researcher in rehabilitation robotics, with a primary focus on bridging the gap between technological innovation and clinical practice. Her work critically examines the human and systemic factors that determine the real-world adoption of rehabilitation robots (RR), moving beyond technical efficacy to explore why these devices remain underutilized despite proven benefits. Her most cited study (2022, 37 citations) provides a seminal analysis of the factors influencing RR use, including therapist perceptions, advantages, and limitations in clinical settings. By centering the perspectives of practitioners, Dr. Ouendi’s research offers actionable insights for designing more user-friendly, clinically integrated robotic systems. This work is foundational for engineers, clinicians, and policymakers aiming to translate robotic rehabilitation from the lab into widespread therapeutic practice. Her contributions are shaping a more holistic understanding of assistive technology, ensuring that future devices are not only effective but also embraced by the professionals who deploy them.
