About

Roberto De Icco is a leading researcher at the intersection of neurorehabilitation and digital health technologies. His work primarily focuses on developing and evaluating innovative technological approaches—including robotic devices, brain stimulation, and allied digital tools—to restore motor and cognitive function in patients with neurological disorders. De Icco’s major contributions address a critical global health challenge: more than one billion people worldwide are affected by neurological diseases, a number rising with the aging population. His research provides rigorous evidence on the effectiveness, usability, and economic sustainability of these interventions. Notably, his highly cited 2018 review, “Technological Approaches for Neurorehabilitation” (70 citations), serves as a foundational reference in the field. More recently, De Icco is leading the STROKEFIT4 multicentre randomised controlled trial (2025), a landmark study investigating the real-world impact of Robots and Allied Digital Technologies (RADTs) in stroke rehabilitation from subacute to chronic phases. Through this work, De Icco is shaping the future of evidence-based, technology-driven neurorehabilitation, bridging the gap between innovation and clinical practice to improve outcomes for millions of patients worldwide.
