About

Angela Palomba is a leading researcher in neurorehabilitation, with a primary focus on upper limb robotic rehabilitation after stroke. Her work bridges the gap between clinical evidence and practical application, as demonstrated by her highly cited systematic review of rehabilitation guidelines (56 citations). Palomba’s major contributions include synthesizing recommendations for robot-assisted arm therapy, assessing muscle synergies in industrial tasks using EMG analysis, and evaluating sensor-based technologies for post-acute stroke recovery through randomized controlled trials. She has also advanced user-centered design in medical devices, exemplified by her work on a soft robotic exoskeleton for rehabilitation. With over 100 total citations across her key publications, Palomba’s research has significantly shaped evidence-based practice in neurological rehabilitation. Notably, she contributed to the CICERONE Italian Consensus Conference, providing a methodological framework for robot-assisted therapy. Her ongoing updates on rehabilitation guidelines ensure that clinical recommendations remain current, making her a pivotal figure in translating technological innovations into effective stroke rehabilitation strategies.
