About
Linjie Fang is a leading researcher in neurorehabilitation, specializing in the intersection of robotic therapy and non-invasive brain stimulation for stroke recovery. Her work focuses on understanding how combined interventions—specifically robot-assisted upper limb training paired with intermittent theta burst stimulation (iTBS)—can modulate cortical plasticity and enhance motor function in stroke patients. In her most-cited study, Fang employed functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) to reveal that combination therapy significantly alters brain activation patterns compared to robotic training alone, offering mechanistic insights into recovery processes. This work has already garnered 16 citations, highlighting its growing influence in the field. By bridging engineering, neuroscience, and clinical rehabilitation, Fang’s research provides a foundation for optimizing personalized, technology-driven therapies. Her contributions are particularly notable for advancing evidence-based protocols that may improve upper limb outcomes in chronic stroke survivors, positioning her as a rising authority in translational neurorehabilitation.
