About
Giuseppina Basta is a leading researcher in neurorehabilitation, specializing in robotic-assisted therapy for stroke recovery. Her work centers on the development and clinical application of the ARAMIS (Automatic Recovery Arm Motility Integrated System), a dual exoskeleton robot designed to rehabilitate the paretic upper limb after stroke. Basta’s major contributions include pioneering a novel, time- and cost-efficient approach that empowers therapists to deliver targeted motor recovery. Her 2012 paper on the ARAMIS prototype, with 38 citations, established the foundation for this technology, while her 2017 treatment protocol (16 citations) refined its clinical use. Notably, her 2021 path-analysis study, though with 4 citations, offers critical insights into the variables driving motor recovery, revealing how factors like patient engagement modulate outcomes. Basta’s research bridges engineering and rehabilitation, aiming to restore functional independence in stroke survivors. Her work has been cited over 60 times, reflecting its growing impact in neurorehabilitation robotics. For students and researchers, Basta exemplifies how integrating mechatronic innovation with rigorous clinical protocols can transform post-stroke care, offering a promising path toward personalized, robot-assisted therapy.
