About
Kezia Susanto is a clinical researcher whose work focuses on the intersection of neuromodulation and neurorehabilitation, particularly for patients with severe spinal cord injuries (SCI). Her most cited paper, "Recruitment Challenges in Spinal Cord Stimulation Trial for Motor Recovery in Patients with Chronic Complete Spinal Cord Injury" (2025, 4 citations), highlights a critical bottleneck in translational medicine: the difficulty of enrolling participants with chronic motor complete SCI into interventional trials. This work, stemming from the RESTORES trial, examines the practical barriers to combining spinal cord stimulation (SCS) with robotic neurorehabilitation—a promising but logistically complex approach for restoring motor function. By systematically documenting recruitment hurdles, Susanto provides actionable insights for designing more feasible future studies in this high-need population. Her contributions underscore the importance of methodological rigor in clinical research, ensuring that innovative therapies like SCS are tested in real-world settings. Though early in her career, Susanto’s focus on trial feasibility and patient access marks her as a thoughtful advocate for advancing SCI recovery, bridging the gap between laboratory promise and clinical reality.
