About

Maarten G. Lansberg is a leading researcher at the intersection of stroke rehabilitation and wearable robotics. His work focuses on developing accessible assistive technologies to restore motor function after neurological injury. Lansberg’s major contribution is the design and validation of the "Upper Extremity Exomuscle," a lightweight, textile-based exosuit that supports shoulder abduction—a critical movement often impaired after stroke. By prioritizing affordability and ease of use, his research addresses a key barrier to rehabilitation access, offering a practical alternative to bulky, expensive robotic devices. His most-cited paper (2020) has garnered 46 citations, underscoring its influence in the field of neurorehabilitation engineering. Lansberg’s work not only advances the science of human-machine interaction but also holds promise for improving quality of life for stroke survivors. His achievements highlight a commitment to translating biomechanical principles into real-world solutions, making him a notable figure in the growing movement toward democratized, patient-centered rehabilitation technology.
