About
Lori M. Murray is a leading researcher in neurorehabilitation, with a primary focus on restoring mobility for individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI). Her key research areas include functional electrical stimulation (FES), implanted neuroprosthetic systems, and locomotor recovery after incomplete SCI. Murray’s most cited work, a 2007 case report (88 citations), demonstrated that an implanted FES system could produce meaningful therapeutic and functional walking improvements in a patient with incomplete SCI—providing critical early evidence for the short-term benefits of this technology. This study helped bridge the gap between experimental devices and clinical application, influencing subsequent protocols for FES-assisted gait training. Beyond this landmark paper, Murray has contributed to advancing neuroprosthetic design and outcome measurement in rehabilitation. Her work is distinguished by its direct translational impact, offering tangible hope for restoring community ambulation. With a career dedicated to merging engineering innovation with patient-centered care, Murray remains a pivotal figure in the quest to improve quality of life after neurological injury.
