About
Carla Assenza is a leading researcher in pediatric neurorehabilitation, with a focused expertise in robotic-assisted therapy for children with neurological impairments. Her major contributions center on developing and evaluating innovative interventions to improve motor function and quality of life in young patients. Notably, her work on the Gloreha Sinfonia robotic system for hand therapy after pediatric stroke, detailed in a 2022 case report (21 citations), demonstrates the potential of robot-mediated therapy to enhance conventional rehabilitation outcomes. She has also investigated reciprocating system aids for standing and walking in children with severe cerebral palsy (2024, 2 citations), addressing the critical goal of independent mobility. Through these studies, Assenza has advanced the evidence base for integrating assistive technologies into pediatric care, offering new hope for children facing lifelong motor disabilities. Her research not only highlights the efficacy of these tools but also underscores the importance of tailored, technology-driven approaches in neurorehabilitation.
