About
Roua Walha is a rising researcher at the intersection of rehabilitation technology and human-centered design, with a primary focus on integrating smart technologies—including artificial intelligence and robotics—into therapeutic exercise systems. Her most-cited work, a 2024 qualitative study on professionals’ perspectives of smart stationary bikes in rehabilitation, has already garnered early citations, signaling growing interest in her approach to bridging clinical needs with technological innovation. Walha’s major contribution lies in systematically capturing the nuanced views of rehabilitation professionals to inform the development of intelligent exercise equipment that can adapt to individual patient goals, moving beyond limited-functionality traditional bikes. By prioritizing stakeholder input, she ensures that emerging smart rehabilitation tools are both clinically relevant and user-friendly. Her research has the potential to transform how stationary bikes are used in physical therapy, making them more responsive and effective. As an early-career scholar, Walha is establishing herself as a thoughtful voice in the design of AI-enhanced rehabilitation devices, with her work laying the groundwork for future studies on personalized, technology-driven recovery interventions.
