About
Dr. Maykol Santos is a leading researcher at the intersection of biomedical engineering and neurorehabilitation, with a primary focus on advancing motor function assessment through technology. His work centers on integrating wearable sensors, mobile devices, and motion-capture systems to improve the objectivity and clinical utility of standard gait analysis tools. In his highly cited systematic review, "Ten Meter Walk Test for motor function assessment with technological devices based on lower members’ movements," Dr. Santos critically examined how modern sensors can enhance the traditional 10MWT—a key diagnostic for neuromuscular and neurodegenerative conditions. His findings, which have already garnered 8 citations since 2025, provide a foundational framework for developing more precise, home-based monitoring systems. By bridging the gap between conventional clinical tests and cutting-edge digital health solutions, Dr. Santos is paving the way for earlier detection and personalized rehabilitation strategies. His work is particularly impactful for researchers and clinicians seeking to leverage low-cost, accessible technology to track disease progression and motor recovery in conditions such as Parkinson’s disease, stroke, and multiple sclerosis.
