About
Dr. Amit Mehndiratta is a leading researcher in neurorehabilitation engineering, specializing in the development of robotic exoskeletons for post-stroke recovery. His work bridges biomedical engineering and clinical neuroscience, with a focus on low-resource settings. His most impactful contribution is a randomized controlled trial (120 citations) demonstrating that a custom-designed robotic hand exoskeleton induces measurable neuroplasticity in chronic stroke patients, evidenced by both clinical scales and neurophysiological measures. This landmark study proved that even years after a stroke, targeted robotic therapy can rewire the brain. Dr. Mehndiratta also designed a pioneering electromechanical exoskeleton for simultaneous wrist and finger rehabilitation, specifically engineered for affordability and reproducibility in resource-limited environments (41 citations). A notable case report further documented functional and cortical excitability changes in a 9-year chronic stroke survivor, underscoring the therapy’s potential for long-term recovery. By combining rigorous clinical trials with accessible technology, Dr. Mehndiratta is advancing evidence-based, low-cost neurorehabilitation solutions that have the power to transform stroke care globally.
