About
David Keeling is a leading researcher in rehabilitation robotics and neurorehabilitation, with a focus on developing accessible technologies for stroke recovery. His work centers on home-based robotic systems that enable self-directed upper limb exercise, addressing the critical gap in intensive rehabilitation outside clinical settings. Keeling’s most cited study, the 2014 feasibility trial of the home-based Computer Assisted Arm Rehabilitation (hCAAR) robotic device, demonstrated that stroke survivors could safely and effectively use this technology at home to improve arm function. With 141 citations, this paper has become a foundational reference for home-based robotic rehabilitation, influencing subsequent device designs and clinical protocols. Keeling’s contributions are notable for bridging engineering innovation with practical patient needs, emphasizing usability and real-world application. His research has helped shift rehabilitation paradigms toward decentralized, technology-enabled care, empowering patients to engage in consistent, high-intensity exercise. Through rigorous feasibility studies and user-centered design, Keeling has advanced the field of neurorehabilitation, making robotic therapy more accessible and scalable for stroke survivors worldwide.
