About

Andreia S. P. Sousa is a leading researcher at the intersection of biomedical engineering and digital health, with a core focus on home-based rehabilitation and the integration of artificial intelligence into therapeutic systems. Her work addresses a critical gap in modern medicine: how to deliver effective, technology-driven rehabilitation outside of clinical settings. Her most influential contribution, the 2023 overview "Home-Based Rehabilitation of the Shoulder Using Auxiliary Systems and Artificial Intelligence," has garnered 34 citations, establishing a foundational framework for understanding how AI and auxiliary hardware can enhance patient recovery from shoulder conditions. Building on this, her 2022 paper further dissects the technological factors—both hardware and software—that determine the success of home-based rehabilitation programs. Dr. Sousa’s research is notable for its practical, patient-centered approach, systematically identifying the features of equipment that can either compromise or improve therapeutic outcomes. By mapping the landscape of AI-assisted home care, she has provided a critical roadmap for clinicians and engineers, positioning herself as a key voice in the future of decentralized, intelligent rehabilitation.
