About
Monica Crotti is a rising researcher in pediatric neurorehabilitation, whose work centers on understanding and quantifying sensorimotor impairments in children with unilateral cerebral palsy (uCP). Her major contributions lie in the innovative use of robotic exoskeletons—specifically the Kinarm system—to provide in-depth, objective measurements of bimanual coordination, visual function, and somatosensory processing. In her most-cited 2023 paper, Crotti demonstrated how robotic assessments can capture nuanced deficits in bimanual coordination that traditional clinical tests may miss, offering a powerful new tool for diagnosis and treatment planning. Her 2024 study further explored the critical link between visual functions and bimanual performance, while her 2025 work systematically mapped tactile and proprioceptive impairments in both the more- and less-impaired limbs, identifying subgroups of children who are most affected. With over 28 cumulative citations in just a few years, Crotti’s research is already shaping how clinicians and researchers approach assessment in pediatric cerebral palsy. Her work bridges engineering and clinical practice, providing actionable insights that promise to improve targeted interventions and functional outcomes for children with uCP.
