About

Claudine Auger is a leading researcher in rehabilitation sciences and assistive technologies, with a focus on smart health innovations for clinical and home-based care. Her work bridges engineering and patient-centered rehabilitation, particularly through the integration of artificial intelligence and robotics into therapeutic devices. In her highly cited 2024 study, "Professionals’ Perspectives of Smart Stationary Bikes in Rehabilitation: Qualitative Study," Auger conducted in-depth interviews with clinicians to explore how smart stationary bikes—equipped with AI-driven feedback and adaptive resistance—can transform rehabilitation for conditions like stroke or orthopedic injury. This research, which has already garnered attention despite its recent publication, highlights her ability to identify gaps between current rehabilitation tools and emerging technologies. Auger’s contributions are pivotal in shaping how smart devices can be designed to meet real-world clinical needs, ensuring that technological advances translate into meaningful patient outcomes. Her work is widely recognized for its interdisciplinary approach, combining qualitative insights with engineering design, and continues to influence the development of intelligent, adaptive rehabilitation systems.
