About

Tae Young Choi is a leading researcher in pediatric neurorehabilitation, with a primary focus on developing and evaluating wearable robotic systems for gait training in children with neurological impairments. His major contributions center on the clinical application of overground, joint-torque-assisting exoskeletal robots—a technology that provides young patients with a more natural and realistic walking experience by assisting movement based on their intended actions. Choi’s 2021 study on robot-assisted gait training (RAGT) for pediatric cerebral palsy, which has garnered 34 citations, was among the first to demonstrate the therapeutic potential of untethered exoskeletons in this population. He further advanced the field with a 2022 feasibility study on children with static brain injury, showing that wearable exoskeletal robots can be safely and effectively integrated into clinical rehabilitation. With a combined citation impact exceeding 47 for these two foundational works, Choi’s research is shaping the future of pediatric mobility interventions. His work is particularly notable for bridging the gap between robotic engineering and patient-centered care, offering new hope for children with chronic gait disorders.
