About
Dr. Maurizio Nespoli is a leading figure in pediatric rehabilitation robotics, focusing on the design and clinical validation of technology-based interventions for children with neurological disabilities. His work bridges the gap between engineering and clinical practice, aiming to create standardized, evidence-based rehabilitation pathways. Dr. Nespoli was instrumental in the Italian Consensus Conference CICERONE, which produced the first comprehensive national recommendations for robot-assisted pediatric rehabilitation—a foundational paper with 7 citations that is shaping clinical guidelines. He also pioneered the development of novel kinematic indexes for evaluating upper limb reaching movements using robotic exoskeletons, offering more precise, objective metrics for motor recovery. At the Santobono-Pausilipon Hospital, he led the design of integrated rehabilitation pathways combining robotics and virtual reality, demonstrating how these technologies can assess and improve posture, gait, and balance. With a growing body of work that directly impacts clinical protocols, Dr. Nespoli is helping to define the future of accessible, data-driven rehabilitation for children with motor impairments.
