About

Jeswin Jeyasurya has made significant contributions to the field of rehabilitation engineering, with a primary focus on understanding and quantifying sensorimotor deficits in individuals with neurological injuries. His key research areas include robotic exoskeletons, kinesthesia assessment, and spinal cord injury (SCI) rehabilitation. Jeyasurya’s most notable work, "Quantification of Lower Extremity Kinesthesia Deficits Using a Robotic Exoskeleton in People With a Spinal Cord Injury," has garnered 23 citations and addresses a critical gap in SCI research: the lack of precise tools to measure kinesthesia—the sense of movement. By leveraging robotic exoskeleton technology, he developed a novel method to objectively quantify lower extremity movement perception, offering a more accurate and reliable alternative to traditional clinical assessments. This work has laid the groundwork for better monitoring of functional recovery and tailoring rehabilitation strategies. Jeyasurya’s research bridges engineering and clinical neuroscience, providing valuable insights into how robotic systems can enhance our understanding of motor control deficits. His contributions are particularly impactful for students and researchers interested in neurorehabilitation, human-robot interaction, and the development of assistive technologies that improve quality of life for individuals with SCI.
