About

Navin B. Prakash is a leading researcher in neurorehabilitation, specializing in robotic-assisted gait training for patients with neurological impairments. His work focuses on leveraging advanced robotic systems, such as the Mobility Assisted Robotic System (MARS) and exoskeleton technologies, to restore mobility and improve quality of life in individuals with stroke and spinal cord injuries. In his highly cited 2023 study on overground gait training with MARS in stroke patients, Prakash demonstrated significant improvements in gait parameters, establishing a foundation for integrating robotics into clinical rehabilitation. His 2024 research on robotic exoskeleton-assisted training in patients with motor incomplete myelopathy further expanded this impact, showing enhanced balance and reduced disability. With over 8 citations across his most notable works, Prakash’s contributions are shaping evidence-based practices in neurological rehabilitation. His innovative approach bridges engineering and patient care, offering new hope for functional recovery. Prakash continues to advance the field through rigorous clinical trials, making him a pivotal figure in the future of assistive rehabilitation technology.
