About

Edoardo Sessa is a leading researcher in neurorehabilitation, with a primary focus on multiple sclerosis (MS) and innovative therapeutic interventions. His work centers on the intersection of robotic gait training, virtual reality, and pharmacological support to improve motor and cognitive outcomes in MS patients. Sessa’s most cited study (51 citations) demonstrated that combining robotic gait training with virtual reality significantly boosts rehabilitative outcomes, offering a novel approach to addressing motor impairment—the most common MS symptom. He has also explored the link between dyslipidemia and cognitive decline in MS (19 citations), highlighting metabolic factors in disease progression. Notably, Sessa has investigated the role of nabiximols (Sativex) in enhancing robotic rehabilitation, with studies showing its potential to improve spasticity and walking impairment (12 and 7 citations). His integrated approach—merging cutting-edge robotics, pharmacology, and immersive technology—positions him at the forefront of personalized MS rehabilitation, with a growing impact on clinical practice and patient quality of life.
