About
Jusuk Lee is a researcher specializing in rehabilitation robotics and wearable exoskeleton technology, with a particular focus on improving mobility and physical function in aging and neurologically impaired populations. Lee's work centers on the development and clinical application of robotic hip exoskeletons, investigating their potential to enhance walking function and combat sedentary behavior in vulnerable communities. Among Lee's most notable contributions is a 2022 study demonstrating that a modular hip exoskeleton could meaningfully improve walking function and reduce sedentary time in community-dwelling older adults — a critical finding given that over one-third of adults aged 75 and older in the United States remain physically inactive. This work, which has garnered 22 citations, helped bridge the gap between clinical exoskeleton research and real-world community application. Lee has also advanced the evidence base for stroke rehabilitation, examining the safety and efficacy of the Samsung GEMS-H exoskeleton in outpatient settings, reflecting a commitment to translating robotic technologies into practical therapeutic contexts. Through these contributions, Lee is helping to redefine how wearable robotics can address mobility challenges across aging and post-stroke populations, making meaningful strides toward accessible, technology-driven rehabilitation solutions.
