About
Lori Quinn is a leading researcher in neurorehabilitation, with a focus on developing innovative robotic and technology-based interventions to improve motor recovery after stroke. Her work centers on gait asymmetries and locomotor training, exploring how robotic assistive devices can enhance rehabilitation outcomes. Quinn’s major contributions include investigating novel training paradigms, such as error augmentation (EA) and forced-induced weight shifting, to address persistent gait deficits. Her 2017 study on the Tethered Pelvic Assist Device, which has garnered 21 citations, critically examines the trade-offs between error reduction and error augmentation models, highlighting their implications for skill acquisition and long-term retention. Additionally, her 2020 feasibility study on treadmill-based locomotor training with robotic pelvic assist and visual feedback (4 citations) demonstrates the potential of combining robotics with sensory feedback to increase practice frequency and improve transfer of learned skills outside the device. Quinn’s work is notable for its practical focus on translating robotic interventions into clinical settings, offering new pathways for addressing chronic gait impairments. Her research continues to shape the future of stroke rehabilitation, making her a key figure in the field.
