About
Ivan Bautmans is a leading researcher in gerontology and rehabilitation science, focusing on the intersection of aging, muscle function, and assistive technologies. His work centers on understanding age-related declines in intrinsic capacities—such as muscle strength and mobility—and developing interventions to preserve functional independence in older adults. A major contribution is his systematic review on wearable lower limb exoskeletons, which aligns with the WHO’s vision for healthy aging by exploring how these devices can rehabilitate intrinsic capacities and augment functional abilities. This work, published in 2024, has already garnered 14 citations, reflecting its timely impact on the field. Bautmans’ research integrates clinical insights with engineering innovations, offering evidence-based strategies to combat disability in aging populations. His notable achievements include bridging rehabilitation science with cutting-edge technology, positioning him as a key figure in the global effort to enhance quality of life for older adults. For students and researchers, Bautmans’ work exemplifies how interdisciplinary approaches can address pressing societal challenges in aging and mobility.
