About

Mokhtar Arazpour is a leading researcher in rehabilitation engineering, with a primary focus on prosthetics, orthotics, and gait rehabilitation for individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI). His work is centered on restoring mobility and improving quality of life through innovative assistive technologies. Arazpour’s major contributions include comprehensive analyses of gait training methods, where he has systematically evaluated the efficacy of body weight support treadmill training, robotic-assisted therapy, and robotic exoskeletons for standing and walking recovery in SCI patients. His 2018 paper on this topic, while accumulating 5 citations, provides a foundational framework for clinicians and engineers. He is also the author of the influential 2020 book *Prosthetics and Orthotics*, which synthesizes rapid advancements in computer components, robotics, and new materials that have transformed the field. This work serves as a key educational resource for students and practitioners. Arazpour’s research bridges clinical rehabilitation and engineering design, demonstrating a clear impact on how mobility aids are developed and applied. His dedication to evidence-based practice and technological innovation makes him a vital voice in the ongoing effort to restore function and independence to those with physical disabilities.
