About
Camille E. Proulx is a leading researcher in neurorehabilitation, specializing in the development and evaluation of soft robotic technologies for restoring hand function after neurological events such as stroke. Her work sits at the intersection of occupational therapy, human-robot interaction, and sensorimotor feedback, with a focus on translating innovative engineering into clinically viable tools. Proulx’s major contributions include comprehensive reviews and mixed-methods studies that assess the usability, utility, and acceptability of wearable soft robotic exoskeleton gloves. Her 2020 review (60 citations) mapped the emerging evidence for these gloves in activity-based rehabilitation, while her 2021 study (30 citations) provided critical occupational therapist perspectives on their practical integration into stroke care. She has also advanced the field by examining how somesthetic, visual, and auditory feedback interact in upper-limb neurorehabilitation technology (27 citations), helping to contextualize knowledge for more effective, patient-centered design. Through her rigorous, user-centered approach, Proulx is shaping how clinicians and engineers collaborate to create accessible, evidence-based robotic solutions that improve manual dexterity and quality of life for individuals with neurological impairments.
