About
Leila Mouzehkesh Pirborj is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of pediatric rehabilitation, human-robot interaction, and assistive technology. Her work focuses on developing innovative, game-based therapeutic interventions for children with cerebral palsy (CP), particularly those with high-level disabilities. Her major contribution lies in conceptualizing frameworks that reverse traditional caregiver-child roles, empowering young patients through active engagement with humanoid robots. In her 2024 study, she introduced a system integrating the Pepper robot with advanced sensory games, transforming rehabilitation into an interactive, child-led experience. Her 2023 paper further outlines serious game scenarios where Pepper robots serve as dynamic rehab standing frames, blending physical therapy with play. Though her work is recent, with each paper garnering 3 citations, its impact is already evident in its novel approach to pediatric care. By merging robotics, gaming, and sensory feedback, Pirborj is redefining rehabilitation—shifting it from a passive, clinician-directed process to an empowering, engaging journey for children. Her research holds promise for improving motor outcomes and quality of life, marking her as an emerging leader in assistive robotics and child-centered healthcare innovation.
