About
Dr. Maryam Hajizadeh is a leading researcher in the field of rehabilitation robotics and human motor control, with a particular focus on how robotic exoskeletons interact with the human neuromuscular system. Her work is centered on understanding muscle coordination and synergy patterns during robotic-assisted gait training, especially using the Lokomat system. Her most influential study, "Effects of body weight support and guidance force settings on muscle synergy during Lokomat walking" (2021), has garnered 34 citations and provides critical insights into how varying levels of robotic support alter the way muscles work together during walking. This research has significant implications for optimizing rehabilitation protocols for patients with neurological impairments. Dr. Hajizadeh's earlier work, presented to an international audience in 2019, further explores muscle coordination during robotic-assisted walking, laying the groundwork for her current investigations. By bridging the gap between biomechanics and clinical robotics, her contributions are helping to refine how therapists set robotic parameters to maximize patient recovery and promote more natural gait patterns.
