About
Giuseppe Forte is a leading researcher at the intersection of neuropsychology, embodied cognition, and assistive robotics. His work fundamentally rethinks how wearable technologies, particularly exoskeletons, can be personalized for individuals with spinal cord injuries (SCIs). In his highly cited 2022 paper, "Exoskeletons for Mobility after Spinal Cord Injury: A Personalized Embodied Approach" (31 citations), Forte argues that these devices must be designed not merely as mechanical aids but as extensions of the user’s own body, integrating psychological and physiological needs. This embodied perspective challenges conventional engineering approaches, emphasizing user agency, sensory feedback, and long-term adaptation. Forte’s contributions bridge cognitive science and rehabilitation engineering, offering a human-centered framework for next-generation prosthetics. His work has been recognized for its interdisciplinary impact, informing both clinical practice and robotic design. By foregrounding the subjective experience of mobility, Forte is shaping a future where assistive technologies are truly transformative—restoring not just movement, but a sense of self.
