About

Dr. Franco Chan is a leading researcher in neurorehabilitation, with a focus on restoring sensorimotor function following spinal cord injury (SCI). His work bridges the critical gap between paralysis and proprioceptive loss, exploring how targeted training can enhance movement control. In his highly cited 2019 study, Chan demonstrated that a robotic-based proprioception training intervention can significantly improve lower limb sensorimotor outcomes in individuals with SCI—a finding that has shaped rehabilitation protocols and inspired further investigation into sensory feedback mechanisms. With over a decade of contributions to the field, his research continues to influence how clinicians and engineers design interventions that address both motor and sensory deficits. Chan’s work is foundational for students and researchers interested in the intersection of robotics, neuroscience, and rehabilitation, and his studies remain essential reading for those advancing recovery after neurological injury.
