About

Amin M. Nasrabadi investigates how the human brain overcomes sensorimotor delays to maintain balance and control movement. His research lies at the intersection of neuroscience, robotics, and motor control, focusing on how the central nervous system adapts to delayed sensory feedback during standing and walking. In his highly cited 2024 paper (10 citations), Nasrabadi demonstrated that humans can learn to stand with sensorimotor delays and generalize this control across different directions and even from hand to leg effectors—a finding with profound implications for rehabilitation and prosthetic design. He also developed a novel multidirectional human-in-the-loop balance robotic system (2023, 9 citations), which adds mediolateral control to existing platforms, enabling more naturalistic balance studies. His recent work (2025) shows that learning to stand with delays alters sensorimotor control strategies without causing instability when returning to natural conditions, suggesting the brain retains flexible, adaptive control policies. Nasrabadi’s contributions bridge fundamental neuroscience and practical engineering, offering insights into how aging and neurological disorders affect balance—and how robotic systems can help restore it.
