About
Dr. Anna Estraneo is a leading researcher in neurorehabilitation, specializing in cognitive and motor recovery for patients with severe acquired brain injury (sABI) and neurodegenerative conditions. Her work bridges cutting-edge technology with clinical practice, focusing on robotic verticalization, lower limb mobilization, and non-immersive virtual reality (VR) for cognitive rehabilitation. Dr. Estraneo’s major contributions include designing multicenter randomized controlled trials, such as the VR-sABI study, which explores restorative approaches to cognitive impairment, and the VEM-sABI trial, which investigates robotic-assisted verticalization to improve upright posture adaptation. Her recent work on the OPERA project introduces a bio-cooperative robotic platform integrating service robots and VR for cognitive rehabilitation in Parkinson’s disease and mild cognitive impairment, emphasizing user-centered evaluation through focus groups and living labs. With over 4 citations across her most-cited papers in 2025, Dr. Estraneo’s research is gaining traction for its innovative, patient-focused methodologies. Her achievements highlight a commitment to translating advanced rehabilitation technologies into practical, engaging therapies, offering hope for improved outcomes in populations with complex neurological deficits.
