Wei‐Peng Teo

About

Wei-Peng Teo is a leading researcher at the intersection of neurorehabilitation and brain-computer interface (BCI) technology, with a primary focus on restoring motor function after stroke. His work centers on how non-invasive brain stimulation and motor imagery-based BCIs can facilitate neural plasticity and functional recovery. Teo’s most influential study, with 157 citations, demonstrated that combining transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) with motor imagery BCI and robotic feedback significantly enhances rehabilitation outcomes for stroke patients. This work established a framework for integrating neuromodulation with closed-loop BCI systems. His 2014 review, cited 95 times, critically assessed the feasibility of motor-imagery BCIs in clinical stroke rehabilitation, helping to shape the field’s understanding of both the promise and limitations of this technology. Earlier, Teo employed coherence analysis of EEG recordings to evaluate cortical connectivity changes during upper limb motor imagery BCI training, providing foundational evidence for how BCI-driven rehabilitation alters brain network dynamics. Through these contributions, Teo has advanced the translation of BCI technology from assistive devices to powerful rehabilitation tools, directly impacting clinical practice in stroke recovery.
