About
Eveline Temperli is a pioneering researcher in neurorehabilitation and assistive robotics, with a focus on restoring upper limb function in severely affected stroke patients. Her most cited work, "A Novel Soft Robotic Supernumerary Hand for Severely Affected Stroke Patients" (2020, 40 citations), introduces the SoftHand X (SHX)—a soft robotic supernumerary limb designed to re-enable hand use in the 23% of chronic stroke patients with severe upper limb impairments. This innovative device not only provides functional assistance but also combats learned non-use by motivating patients to engage their affected limb. Temperli’s contributions bridge robotics and clinical neuroscience, offering a tangible solution for patients with limited recovery options. Her work has been recognized for its potential to improve quality of life and independence, with the SHX representing a significant step toward accessible, wearable assistive technologies. By combining soft robotics with patient-centered design, Temperli is shaping the future of rehabilitation engineering, making her a key figure in advancing post-stroke care and human-robot interaction.
