About
Dr. Susan Jaglal is a leading figure in rehabilitation science, whose work has profoundly shaped our understanding of spinal cord injury (SCI) recovery and community reintegration. Her research centers on knowledge translation, rehabilitation outcomes, and the development of innovative interventions for individuals with neurological conditions. A key contribution is her systematic scoping review on robot-assisted upper extremity rehabilitation for cervical SCI, which synthesized evidence on feasibility and outcomes, identifying critical gaps and future directions for this emerging technology. This highly cited work (48 citations) has guided clinicians and researchers in optimizing robotic training protocols. Beyond this, Dr. Jaglal has pioneered the use of the "Knowledge-to-Action" framework in rehabilitation, developing tools to bridge the gap between research evidence and clinical practice. Her impact is further demonstrated through her leadership in creating the Canadian Spinal Cord Injury Research Network and her role as a co-investigator on major CIHR-funded projects. Her work has been instrumental in advancing patient-centered care and improving functional outcomes for individuals living with SCI.
