About

Dr. Lama M Abdurrahman is a dedicated clinician-researcher advancing neurorehabilitation, with a focus on robotic exoskeleton therapy for patients with cerebrovascular accidents (CVA) and traumatic brain injury (TBI). Her landmark study, "A Single-center Comparison Using Exoskeleton Rehabilitation for Cerebrovascular Accidents and Traumatic Brain Injury in a Cohort of Hispanic Patients" (2020), is among the first to evaluate the EKSO GT Bionics® exoskeleton in an underserved Hispanic population, addressing critical gaps in diversity and rehabilitation equity. This work has garnered 2 citations and highlights her commitment to personalized, technology-driven recovery. Dr. Abdurrahman’s research demonstrates that robotic-assisted gait training can improve functional outcomes in both CVA and TBI survivors, offering a scalable solution for neurological rehabilitation. Her contributions are particularly notable for bridging the gap between cutting-edge robotics and real-world clinical application, especially in minority communities. By pioneering inclusive studies, she not only advances evidence-based practice but also inspires future research into culturally competent neurorehabilitation. Dr. Abdurrahman’s work stands as a vital step toward making high-tech recovery tools accessible to all patients.
