About
Chiaki Igarashi is a researcher in rehabilitation engineering and human–machine interaction, with a focus on functional recovery through biofeedback and electrical stimulation. Her most-cited work, "Engineering Approach for Functional Recovery Based on Body Image Adjustment by Using Biofeedback of Electrical Stimulation" (2014), explores how biofeedback-driven electrical stimulation can help patients adjust their body image and regain motor function after injury. This paper, with three citations, lays foundational groundwork for integrating neurorehabilitation with wearable technology. Igarashi’s contributions are notable for bridging engineering and clinical practice, offering a novel framework for personalized recovery that emphasizes the brain’s role in adapting to assistive devices. Her research has implications for stroke rehabilitation, prosthetics, and human–robot interfaces, where body image adjustment is key to effective therapy. While her citation count is modest, her work represents an early, innovative step in a growing field, and she continues to advance methods that could transform how we approach motor recovery.
