About

Dr. Molly Corrigan is a leading researcher in neurorehabilitation, with a focus on stroke recovery and innovative motor-training interventions. Her work bridges the gap between engineering and clinical practice, exploring how technology can enhance upper limb function in stroke survivors. Corrigan’s most cited study, “Error-augmented bimanual therapy for stroke survivors” (2018, 9 citations), is a landmark double-blinded randomized controlled trial that combined bimanual training with error-augmenting feedback—a novel approach that pushes patients to recalibrate motor control by amplifying movement discrepancies. This work demonstrated significant short-term gains in functional recovery, offering a promising, low-cost adjunct to traditional therapy. Corrigan’s research is distinguished by its rigorous methodology and patient-centered design, directly addressing the challenge of translating lab-based innovations into real-world rehabilitation settings. Her contributions are particularly notable for their potential to reshape post-stroke care, emphasizing the power of interactive feedback to drive neuroplasticity. With a growing citation footprint, Corrigan is a rising voice in the field, inspiring students and clinicians alike to rethink how technology can empower recovery from neurological injury.
