About

Dr. Joanna Nowak is a rising innovator in the field of biomedical engineering and rehabilitation robotics, with a focused expertise in assistive device design and 3D-printed mechatronics. Her most cited work, "Hand Exoskeleton—Development of Own Concept" (2023, 10 citations), introduces a novel, low-cost mechanical and IT solution for hand rehabilitation. This research directly addresses the critical need for accessible therapy tools for individuals with special needs, integrating physiotherapist-guided control with a custom 3D-printed structure. By challenging conventional exoskeleton paradigms, Dr. Nowak’s contribution offers a scalable, personalized approach to motor recovery, bridging the gap between advanced robotics and clinical practicality. Her work is particularly notable for its emphasis on user-centered design and interdisciplinary collaboration, making complex rehabilitation technology more attainable. As a researcher, Dr. Nowak demonstrates a clear commitment to translating engineering principles into tangible, life-improving devices, positioning her as a promising voice in the future of assistive technology and human-machine interaction.
