About
Dr. Sabrina Basilico is a leading researcher in rehabilitation robotics and assistive technologies, with a primary focus on restoring mobility for individuals with severe neurological injuries. Her key research areas include powered exoskeleton control, human-robot interaction, and gait rehabilitation for patients with complete spinal cord injury (SCI). Dr. Basilico’s most cited work, "Assistive powered exoskeleton for complete spinal cord injury: correlations between walking ability and exoskeleton control" (2019, 43 citations), represents a major contribution to the field by systematically investigating how exoskeleton control parameters correlate with actual walking performance in patients with no voluntary leg movement. This study provided critical insights into the global functional interaction between the user and the robotic system, demonstrating that coordinated interlimb movements are achievable through optimized control strategies. Her research bridges the gap between robotic engineering and clinical rehabilitation, offering evidence-based guidelines for tailoring exoskeleton assistance to individual patient needs. Dr. Basilico’s work has been instrumental in advancing the efficacy and efficiency of over-ground gait training, making her a notable figure in the development of practical, user-centered assistive technologies that improve quality of life for individuals with paralysis.
