About

Dr. Andrea Bernetti is a leading researcher in neurorehabilitation, with a focus on integrating pharmacological and robotic interventions to restore motor function in patients with neurological impairments. Her work centers on the synergistic use of botulinum toxin type A (BoNT-A) and advanced robotic rehabilitation to treat spasticity and improve functional outcomes. In a landmark 2021 study, Dr. Bernetti demonstrated that combining end-effector robotic training with BoNT-A injections significantly enhances upper limb recovery in chronic post-stroke patients, outperforming robot therapy alone—a contribution that has garnered 23 citations for its clinical relevance. She has also advanced pediatric care through a 2024 scoping review on spastic diplegia, showing that integrating BoNT-A with tailored rehabilitative strategies consistently reduces spasticity and improves gait in children. Her research bridges the gap between pharmacology and technology, offering evidence-based protocols that maximize patient independence. With a growing citation impact, Dr. Bernetti’s work is shaping modern rehabilitation paradigms, making her a key voice in the movement toward personalized, multi-modal neurorehabilitation.
