About
Dr. Hsiao-Ju Cheng is a leading researcher in neurorehabilitation engineering, specializing in the development and clinical translation of robotic and neuromodulation technologies for post-stroke recovery. Her work bridges the gap between cutting-edge assistive devices and tangible improvements in motor function, daily living, and quality of life for stroke survivors. Dr. Cheng’s landmark double-blinded randomized controlled trial (2015, 58 citations) demonstrated that combining robot-assisted therapy with neuromuscular electrical stimulation significantly enhances motor and daily function in chronic stroke patients, establishing a benchmark for multimodal rehabilitation. She has since pioneered the integration of brain-computer interfaces with transcranial direct current stimulation (2021, 29 citations) to amplify neuroplastic changes, and has advanced telerehabilitation through clinic-to-home exergaming systems (2024, 12 citations), making therapy more accessible. Her work on omnidirectional walker robots and mobile platforms for gait rehabilitation (2017–2019) showcases her commitment to restoring mobility and independence. Dr. Cheng’s ongoing TAILOR platform project aims to develop digital biomarkers for personalized upper-limb recovery. With a portfolio of highly cited, impactful studies, she is a driving force in transforming stroke rehabilitation through technology.
