About

Dr. Dae-Hwan Lee is a leading researcher in neurorehabilitation, specializing in technology-assisted motor recovery for individuals with neurological disorders. His work focuses on two critical areas: robot-assisted gait training (RAGT) for stroke survivors and comprehensive physical therapy approaches for Parkinson’s disease. In his most cited paper (2024, 28 citations), Dr. Lee provides a landmark review of RAGT systems, demonstrating how robotic exoskeletons and end-effector devices can significantly improve gait symmetry, balance, and quality of life post-stroke. He further explores the complexities of Parkinson’s disease in a second highly cited review (2024, 16 citations), emphasizing the need for individualized, multi-modal treatment plans that combine physical therapy with pharmacological management. Earlier work (2020, 4 citations) systematically compared upper limb rehabilitation methods, including Bobath therapy and task-oriented training, laying groundwork for evidence-based stroke care. Dr. Lee’s contributions are notable for bridging engineering and clinical practice, offering practical frameworks for integrating cutting-edge robotics into standard rehabilitation protocols. His reviews serve as essential resources for clinicians and researchers seeking to optimize motor recovery in aging populations.
