About
Dr. Chu-Ling Yen is a leading researcher in neurorehabilitation, specializing in post-stroke motor recovery and spasticity management. Her work bridges cutting-edge technology and evidence-based therapy, with a particular focus on integrating botulinum toxin A (BoNT-A) injections with task-oriented training modalities. In her landmark 2022 pilot randomized controlled trial—cited 16 times—Dr. Yen investigated the comparative effects of robot-assisted therapy, mirror therapy, and active control treatments combined with BoNT-A in patients with post-stroke spasticity. This study provided critical insights into optimizing rehabilitation protocols, demonstrating how targeted interventions can enhance motor function beyond pharmacological treatment alone. Her research addresses a key clinical gap: the unclear synergy between BoNT-A and task-oriented therapies. By systematically evaluating these combinations, Dr. Yen has advanced personalized rehabilitation strategies, offering clinicians evidence-based guidance for improving upper limb function and reducing spasticity. Her work is highly regarded for its rigorous methodology and practical implications, making her a notable contributor to stroke rehabilitation science. Dr. Yen’s ongoing investigations continue to shape how multidisciplinary approaches are applied in neurorehabilitation, benefiting both researchers and clinicians dedicated to improving patient outcomes.
