About

Dr. Micaela Morettini is a leading researcher in neurorehabilitation and geriatric robotics, with a focus on developing innovative, technology-driven interventions for older adults recovering from stroke. Her work bridges engineering and clinical medicine to address critical challenges in post-stroke mobility and functional recovery. Among her most cited contributions is the study protocol for a randomized controlled trial titled "An innovative training based on robotics for older people with subacute stroke," which outlines a pioneering approach to gait rehabilitation using robotic assistance. This work has garnered early recognition with 3 citations, reflecting its growing influence in the field. Dr. Morettini’s research emphasizes the integration of robotics into traditional rehabilitation frameworks to enhance motor learning and neuroplasticity in elderly populations. Her contributions are particularly significant given the rising incidence of stroke with age, and her protocols aim to reduce disability and improve quality of life. Through her rigorous methodology and patient-centered design, Dr. Morettini is shaping the future of geriatric neurorehabilitation, offering scalable, evidence-based solutions for one of the most pressing public health challenges of aging.
