About
Dr. Anna Bosco is a leading researcher in neurorehabilitation and motor control, with a particular focus on understanding how the brain adapts to and benefits from robotic assistance. Her work bridges neuroscience and biomedical engineering, exploring the neural mechanisms underlying passive and imagined limb movements. Her most cited study, "Quantitative EEG Evaluation During Robot-Assisted Foot Movement" (2016, 59 citations), is a landmark contribution that demonstrated how robot-assisted lower limb movements induce measurable changes in cerebral oscillatory activity, highlighting central modulatory effects critical for neuroplasticity and rehabilitation. While much prior research centered on upper limb recovery, Bosco’s work uniquely addressed the understudied lower limb, providing foundational evidence for the role of robotic therapy in stroke and spinal cord injury rehabilitation. Her findings have significant implications for designing more effective, brain-responsive rehabilitation protocols. Dr. Bosco’s research is widely recognized for its methodological rigor and clinical relevance, making her a key figure in advancing our understanding of motor recovery and the integration of quantitative EEG metrics into rehabilitative practice.
