About
Martin Neeb is a leading researcher in neurorehabilitation, specializing in robotic-assisted gait training for patients with neurological impairments. His work focuses on restoring locomotor function in individuals affected by stroke, multiple sclerosis (MS), and spinal cord injury. Neeb’s major contributions include pioneering randomized controlled trials that demonstrate the effectiveness of early and prolonged robotic-assisted gait therapy (using devices like the Lokomat) in improving functional outcomes for subacute stroke patients—a study that has garnered 211 citations and set a benchmark in the field. He also showed significant benefits of this therapy for MS patients, with his 2011 trial cited 96 times, and explored its application in spinal cord injury rehabilitation. Notably, Neeb’s case report on treating spinal decompression sickness with robotic-assisted body-weight support treadmill training highlights his innovative approach to rare conditions. His research has advanced evidence-based protocols for locomotor recovery, influencing clinical practices worldwide. With over 389 total citations across his key works, Neeb’s contributions underscore the transformative potential of robotics in neurorehabilitation, offering hope and improved mobility for patients with severe motor deficits.
