About
Runping Yuan is a leading researcher in neurorehabilitation engineering, with a focused expertise in robot-assisted therapy for stroke recovery. Her work centers on understanding how bilateral and unilateral upper limb robotic training can restore motor function and improve activities of daily living in hemiplegic patients. Yuan’s major contributions include pioneering the use of quantitative EEG and electromyography to objectively measure neuromuscular and cortical changes during rehabilitation. Her landmark 2023 study, cited 32 times, demonstrated that bilateral robot-assisted training significantly enhances upper limb motor function and alters brain activity patterns. In a subsequent three-arm randomized controlled trial (15 citations), she proved that both uni- and bilateral robotic therapies outperform conventional therapy, providing critical evidence for personalized rehabilitation protocols. Yuan’s research bridges engineering and clinical neuroscience, offering data-driven insights into neural plasticity. Her work is highly influential, with cumulative citations exceeding 50, and is shaping the next generation of adaptive, evidence-based stroke rehabilitation technologies.
