About

Dr. G. Dolce is a pioneering figure in neurorehabilitation, best known for developing the ARAMIS (Automatic Recovery Arm Motility Integrated System), a dual exoskeleton robot designed to revolutionize upper limb recovery after stroke. Their work bridges robotics, mechatronics, and clinical neuroscience, introducing a "robo-mechatronic" approach that enables therapists to deliver high-intensity, task-specific rehabilitation with greater time and cost efficiency. Dolce’s most cited paper (38 citations) details the ARAMIS prototype and its innovative treatment protocol, while subsequent studies—including a lesion mapping analysis (28 citations)—demonstrate how robot-assisted therapy can be tailored to individual brain damage patterns. Notably, Dolce also contributed to early neurostimulation research, with a 1969 study on pallidal system stimulation in traumatic vigil coma (36 citations), showcasing a career spanning decades of translational work. By combining engineering precision with clinical insight, Dolce has helped establish robotic rehabilitation as a viable, evidence-based tool for improving motor function in stroke survivors, making their research essential reading for students and clinicians interested in the future of neurorehabilitation technology.
