About
Jessica M. Cassidy is a leading researcher in stroke recovery and neurorehabilitation, with a primary focus on the corticospinal tract (CST) as a biomarker for motor and sensory outcomes. Her most-cited work, "Comparing CST Lesion Metrics as Biomarkers for Recovery of Motor and Proprioceptive Impairments After Stroke" (2019, 34 citations), critically evaluates different methods for quantifying CST damage, addressing a key methodological gap in the field. By systematically comparing lesion metrics, Cassidy’s research clarifies which approaches best predict recovery of both motor function and proprioception—an often-overlooked sensory domain vital for rehabilitation. Her contributions advance precision in stroke prognosis, enabling clinicians to tailor interventions based on CST integrity. With a growing citation impact, Cassidy’s work bridges neuroimaging and clinical practice, offering actionable insights for improving patient outcomes. Her dedication to refining biomarker assessment underscores her role in shaping evidence-based stroke rehabilitation, making her research essential for students and clinicians seeking to understand neural recovery mechanisms.
