About
Dr. Jihua Zou is a leading researcher in stroke rehabilitation, with a focused expertise in motor function recovery and the application of advanced robotic technologies. Her work critically addresses the global challenge of post-stroke somatic dysfunctions, aiming to enhance patients' quality of life through innovative rehabilitation strategies. Dr. Zou’s major contributions include a comprehensive bibliometric analysis that mapped global research trends in motor function rehabilitation from 2004 to 2022, providing a foundational roadmap for the field. Her most impactful work investigates the effects of exoskeleton rehabilitation robots on neuroplasticity and lower limb motor function in stroke patients, demonstrating how robotic training can stimulate cortical reorganization to drive functional recovery. With her top-cited papers garnering 30 and 13 citations respectively, Dr. Zou’s research is shaping the future of neurorehabilitation. Notably, her 2025 study on exoskeleton robots represents a pioneering effort to bridge the gap between neuroplasticity mechanisms and practical clinical interventions, offering hope for more effective, technology-driven therapies for stroke survivors worldwide.
