About
Dr. Laura Wallard is a leading researcher in the field of neurorehabilitation robotics, with a primary focus on improving gait and dynamic equilibrium in patients with neurological disorders. Her most impactful work centers on children with cerebral palsy, where she has demonstrated that robotic-assisted gait training significantly enhances walking abilities and postural control. Her 2017 study on diplegic children, cited over 100 times, provided crucial evidence for the clinical efficacy of these interventions. Dr. Wallard has also extended her research to adult populations, showing that robotic gait rehabilitation can improve biomechanical parameters in chronic hemiplegic patients. Beyond clinical trials, she has critically analyzed the barriers to adopting rehabilitation robots in practice, identifying factors that influence therapist usage and perceptions—a key contribution to bridging the gap between research and real-world clinical application. With a publication record that has garnered hundreds of citations, Dr. Wallard’s work is instrumental in advancing evidence-based, technology-driven rehabilitation strategies.
