About
Najmeh Golkar’s research centers on the intersection of rehabilitation engineering, human-robot interaction, and biomechanical control, with a particular focus on restoring mobility for individuals with neurological impairments. Her most cited work, "Management of human-robot interaction in order to control of ankle knee during walking" (2020), addresses a critical challenge in post-stroke and traumatic brain injury recovery: coordinating lower limb movement to improve gait. By developing strategies to manage how robotic exoskeletons interact with a patient’s residual motor control, Golkar’s research aims to reduce the physical and psychological burden of paralysis. While her citation count is still growing, this foundational paper has laid important groundwork for adaptive robotic systems that respond to individual patient needs. Golkar’s contributions are especially valuable for stroke survivors, who often face both motor dysfunction and significant emotional stress. Her work exemplifies a patient-centered approach to rehabilitation technology, bridging robotics and clinical care to enhance quality of life. As the field of neurorehabilitation expands, Golkar’s focus on intuitive, responsive human-robot interfaces positions her as a promising voice in designing more effective, compassionate assistive devices.
