About
Shu-Wei Yeh is a rehabilitation researcher whose work focuses on the intersection of assistive technology and neurorehabilitation, particularly for individuals with multiple sclerosis (MS). Yeh’s most notable contribution is a seminal 2020 systematic review and meta-analysis on the efficacy of robot-assisted gait training in MS, which has garnered 47 citations and serves as a key reference in the field. This work critically evaluated the evidence for robotic exoskeletons and gait trainers, demonstrating their potential to improve walking function, balance, and quality of life in MS patients—a population often underserved by conventional therapies. By synthesizing data from multiple clinical trials, Yeh provided a rigorous framework for clinicians and researchers to assess the benefits and limitations of these technologies. Beyond this meta-analysis, Yeh’s research portfolio explores how robotic and sensor-based interventions can be tailored to individual patient needs, addressing motor impairments and promoting neuroplasticity. Their work has helped bridge the gap between engineering and clinical practice, offering evidence-based guidance for integrating robotics into rehabilitation protocols. With a growing citation impact, Shu-Wei Yeh continues to shape the future of assistive technology in neurology, making strides toward more personalized, effective, and accessible rehabilitation for chronic neurological conditions.
