About
Fen-Ling Kuo is a leading researcher in neurorehabilitation, specializing in robot-assisted therapy for motor recovery in patients with neurological disorders. Her work focuses on developing and evaluating innovative interventions to improve hand function in stroke survivors and children with cerebral palsy. Kuo’s major contributions include demonstrating the efficacy of robot-assisted task-oriented training using the Gloreha device, as evidenced by her highly cited 2020 randomized controlled trial (44 citations), which showed significant improvements in sensorimotor function and activities of daily living post-stroke. She has also pioneered the application of distal upper extremity robotic training in pediatric cerebral palsy, with a case series (15 citations) highlighting functional gains in hand dexterity. Kuo’s research bridges the gap between technology and clinical practice, providing evidence-based protocols that enhance patient outcomes. Her work is notable for its rigorous methodology and focus on tangible, real-world tasks, setting a benchmark for future rehabilitation studies. With a growing citation impact, Kuo is shaping the future of neurorehabilitation by integrating robotics into standard care.
