About
Laure Everaert is a leading researcher in pediatric rehabilitation robotics, with a focused expertise in the application of robotic exoskeletons for children with cerebral palsy (CP). Her major contribution lies in synthesizing evidence on how wearable assistive devices can improve gait abnormalities and locomotion in this population. Her most-cited work, a 2022 systematic review (33 citations), critically evaluates the effectiveness of powered lower-extremity exoskeletons, establishing a foundational framework for understanding their clinical impact on stability and mobility. This review is a key resource for clinicians and engineers, bridging the gap between assistive technology and pediatric physiotherapy. Everaert’s research addresses a critical need: translating robotic innovations into tangible functional outcomes for children with CP. By systematically analyzing existing studies, she has highlighted both the promise and limitations of current devices, guiding future device design and clinical protocols. Her work is essential for students and researchers exploring how robotics can enhance motor development and quality of life in pediatric populations, positioning her as a pivotal voice in the intersection of rehabilitation engineering and child health.
