About
Yasaman Adibnia’s research lies at the intersection of telerobotics, sensorimotor rehabilitation, and human-robot interaction, with a focus on restoring locomotor function after neurological injury. Her most-cited work, “Exploiting telerobotics for sensorimotor rehabilitation: a locomotor embodiment” (2021, 9 citations), introduces a novel paradigm where therapists remotely control robotic systems to deliver intuitive, adaptive gait training. By enabling trainers to physically embody the robot through haptic feedback and real-time modulation of assistance, Adibnia bridges the gap between manual therapy’s clinical expertise and robotic precision. This approach addresses a critical limitation in conventional robotic rehabilitation—the loss of therapist judgment—by preserving the trainer’s ability to sense and respond to patient needs. Her contributions have been recognized for advancing embodied teleoperation in neurorehabilitation, offering a path toward more personalized, therapist-in-the-loop robotic therapies. With growing interest in human-centered robotics, Adibnia’s work continues to shape how we design assistive technologies that augment, rather than replace, clinical intuition.
