About
Andrew Jerabek is a rising force in rehabilitation robotics, specializing in the design of accessible, patient-centered technologies for stroke recovery. His work centers on cable-driven parallel robots (CDPRs), a novel class of systems that use lightweight, flexible cables instead of rigid arms to guide limb movement. Jerabek’s major contribution lies in bridging the gap between clinical-grade rehabilitation and the practical constraints of at-home use. His most-cited paper, “Design and Prototyping of a Cable-Driven Parallel Robot for At-Home Upper Extremity Rehabilitation” (2025, 3 citations), exemplifies this approach by integrating stakeholder feedback directly into the engineering process—ensuring that the device is not only effective but also safe, affordable, and easy to operate in a home setting. This user-driven methodology is a hallmark of his research, addressing a critical barrier to widespread adoption of robotic therapy. While his citation count is still growing, Jerabek’s work has already been recognized for its potential to democratize access to rehabilitation, offering a scalable solution for the millions of stroke survivors who lack consistent clinical care. His research promises to reshape how we think about assistive robotics: not as hospital-only tools, but as everyday companions in recovery.
