About
Victor Moreno-SanJuan is a leading researcher in neurorehabilitation robotics, with a focus on developing accessible, patient-centered technologies for motor recovery. His primary contributions lie in the design and validation of lightweight, cost-effective robotic exoskeletons for hand rehabilitation, particularly for patients with spasticity following stroke. His most cited work introduces the RobHand exoskeleton, an underactuated, cable-driven system that prioritizes user comfort and affordability—a critical advance for widespread clinical adoption. With over 50 citations, this paper has shaped the field by demonstrating that effective robotic therapy need not rely on bulky, expensive hardware. Moreno-SanJuan’s research uniquely integrates emotional and psychological assessment into rehabilitation, as shown in his case series study (16 citations) evaluating patients’ emotional responses during RobHand therapy. He has also pioneered embedded EMG-driven control for bilateral therapy (5 citations), enabling intuitive, muscle-signal-based assistance. By bridging engineering, clinical efficacy, and patient experience, his work is driving a more holistic, human-centered approach to neurorehabilitation robotics.
