About
Dr. Sandra Stupar is a leading researcher in neurorehabilitation, specializing in robot-mediated therapy for individuals with neurological disorders. Her work focuses on developing adaptive training systems to restore upper limb function in patients with chronic stroke and multiple sclerosis (MS). Her most cited study, published in 2017, demonstrated the proof-of-concept efficacy of the I-TRAVLE system—a robot-mediated, individualized training regime—in improving impaired upper limb function. In this research, 13 people with MS and 14 chronic stroke patients completed 36 to 40 training sessions, yielding promising results that have garnered 48 citations and laid the groundwork for personalized rehabilitation technologies. Dr. Stupar’s contributions bridge robotics and clinical neuroscience, offering scalable solutions for motor recovery. Her work is notable for its patient-centered approach, emphasizing adaptive training that adjusts to individual impairments. With growing impact in the field, her research continues to inform the design of accessible, robot-assisted therapies, making her a key figure in advancing neurorehabilitation for chronic neurological conditions.
