About
Lidia Perenc is a rehabilitation researcher whose work focuses on improving mobility and quality of life for individuals with neurological conditions, particularly multiple sclerosis (MS). Her most cited study, "Effects of Robotic Exoskeleton-Aided Gait Training in the Strength, Body Balance, and Walking Speed in Individuals With Multiple Sclerosis: A Single-Group Preliminary Study" (2020), has garnered 23 citations, demonstrating its relevance in the emerging field of robotic-assisted rehabilitation. This preliminary investigation provided early evidence that exoskeleton-based gait training can enhance lower-limb strength, postural control, and walking speed in MS patients, offering a promising avenue for restoring functional independence. Perenc’s contributions lie at the intersection of assistive robotics and neurorehabilitation, where she explores how technology can augment traditional physiotherapy. Her work is particularly notable for addressing the often-overlooked balance deficits in MS, a key factor in fall risk and daily activity limitations. By bridging engineering and clinical practice, Perenc is helping to shape evidence-based protocols for robotic therapy, making her research essential reading for students and clinicians interested in cutting-edge rehabilitation strategies.
