About

Stefano Buccelli is a leading researcher at the intersection of rehabilitation robotics and neuroengineering, with a focus on developing intelligent, patient-centered technologies for upper-limb recovery. His work centers on designing gravity-compensating exoskeletons, such as the one for shoulder rehabilitation (49 citations), which prioritize patient mobility and comfort over fixed postures. Buccelli has also pioneered the integration of mixed reality and gamification into robotic therapy, creating engaging, hybrid environments that enhance motor learning and user experience. His contributions extend to the identification of neuromechanical biomarkers for robotic neurorehabilitation (43 citations), aiming to improve clinical assessment and personalize therapy. Notably, he has advanced safe human-robot interaction through customized series elastic actuators and has proposed standardized benchmarking protocols like NeBULA to objectively evaluate rehabilitation technologies. With over 150 total citations across his most-cited works, Buccelli’s research is shaping the next generation of compliant, adaptive, and engaging robotic systems for neurological recovery, making significant strides in translating engineering innovation into tangible clinical impact.
