About
Han Gil Seo is a prominent rehabilitation medicine researcher whose work sits at the intersection of robotic technology, neuroscience, and clinical therapy. Based at a leading academic medical center, Seo has built a distinguished career investigating how advanced robotic systems can restore motor function in patients with neurological conditions, particularly stroke and Parkinson's disease. Seo's most influential contribution — a 2017 pilot randomized controlled trial combining robotic-assisted gait training (RAGT) with transcranial direct current stimulation in chronic stroke patients — has garnered 72 citations and helped establish a new paradigm for augmenting robotic rehabilitation with non-invasive brain stimulation. This work exemplifies his broader commitment to multimodal therapeutic approaches. His subsequent trials exploring RAGT in Parkinson's disease, including investigations into gait automaticity and auditory-visual cueing, have collectively attracted nearly 100 additional citations, meaningfully advancing understanding of neuroplasticity-driven motor recovery. Beyond gait rehabilitation, Seo has made notable strides in upper limb restoration, developing robotic mirror therapy systems and brain-machine interfaces for spinal cord injury patients. His use of inertial measurement units to characterize upper extremity motion further reflects a rigorous, data-driven methodology. Through over 295 cumulative citations across his top works, Seo has emerged as an essential voice shaping the future of technology-assisted neurorehabilitation.
