About
Fabiana Pannunzio is a researcher at the forefront of neurorehabilitation and assistive robotics, with a focus on restoring upper limb function in individuals with severe motor impairments. Her most-cited work, a 2023 case report, demonstrates the transformative potential of combining a robotic glove with physiotherapy for a patient with traumatic tetraparesis, achieving meaningful gains in hand function and daily autonomy. This study, which has garnered early attention with 6 citations, highlights her commitment to translating cutting-edge technology into practical, patient-centered interventions. Pannunzio’s research bridges engineering and clinical practice, exploring how robotic exoskeletons can enhance neuroplasticity and recovery after spinal cord injury. Her contributions are particularly impactful for the rehabilitation community, offering evidence that even in chronic, severe cases, targeted robotic assistance can improve quality of life. By integrating wearable robotics with conventional therapy, she is shaping new standards for post-injury care, making her a rising voice in the field of neurorehabilitation engineering.
