About

Dr. Seong‐Ho Jang is a distinguished researcher in rehabilitation robotics and biomechanics, with a primary focus on developing assistive technologies for individuals with neurological and musculoskeletal impairments. His work centers on the design and clinical application of wearable lower-limb robots to enhance mobility and quality of life for patients with conditions such as hemiplegia and knee osteoarthritis. In his seminal 2017 pilot study, Dr. Jang demonstrated how gait analysis integrated with a wearable lower-limb robot could significantly improve ambulatory rehabilitation outcomes for hemiplegic patients, a contribution that has garnered 14 citations and laid foundational groundwork for robot-assisted therapy protocols. Additionally, his 2014 investigation into the HEXAR-KR40P portable assistive robot provided critical insights into targeted lower extremity exercises for knee osteoarthritis patients, earning 6 citations and highlighting the potential of compact robotic systems in home-based rehabilitation. Through these studies, Dr. Jang has advanced the integration of robotics into clinical practice, offering scalable solutions that bridge the gap between hospital and community care. His work continues to inspire innovations in personalized rehabilitation, making him a key figure in the evolving field of assistive robotics.
