About
Silvia Galeri is a prominent rehabilitation researcher whose work sits at the intersection of robotics, neurology, and clinical recovery science. Her research focuses primarily on robotic-assisted rehabilitation for neurological conditions — particularly stroke and multiple sclerosis — spanning upper limb recovery, gait rehabilitation, and balance restoration. Galeri has made significant contributions through rigorous clinical trials and systematic reviews that bridge the gap between emerging robotic technologies and real-world clinical practice. Among her most impactful work, her 2019 multicenter randomized clinical trial on upper limb robotic rehabilitation after stroke (134 citations) stands out for its methodological rigor in comparing multiple robotic systems against conventional therapy — a notable advancement over prior single-robot studies. Her 2017 trial on hand paralysis rehabilitation (105 citations) further demonstrated meaningful gains from robot-assisted therapy when integrated with physiotherapy and occupational therapy. Galeri has also contributed extensively to evidence synthesis, producing widely cited systematic reviews and clinical guidelines on robotic gait training in stroke and multiple sclerosis populations. An intriguing 2020 exploratory study examined robotics' unexpected potential in improving post-stroke cognitive function. With over 700 cumulative citations, Galeri's body of work is meaningfully shaping how clinicians adopt and standardize robotic neurorehabilitation worldwide.
