About

Dr. Wen‐Chi Wu is a leading researcher in neurorehabilitation, specializing in post-stroke spasticity management and motor recovery. Her work bridges pharmacological interventions with cutting-edge rehabilitation technologies to restore function in patients with neurological impairments. Dr. Wu’s major contributions center on optimizing botulinum toxin A (BoNT-A) therapy by combining it with task-oriented training modalities. In her landmark 2022 pilot randomized controlled trial—cited 16 times—she systematically compared the effects of BoNT-A injections paired with robot-assisted therapy, mirror therapy, or active control treatment on spasticity and motor function. This study provided critical evidence that integrated, task-specific training enhances outcomes beyond injection alone, shaping clinical protocols for stroke rehabilitation. Her research has advanced understanding of how neuroplasticity can be harnessed through targeted, combined interventions. Dr. Wu’s work is widely recognized for its translational impact, directly informing rehabilitation strategies in hospitals and clinics. She continues to pioneer studies that refine personalized treatment plans, aiming to improve quality of life for patients with chronic spasticity. Her dedication to evidence-based practice makes her a vital voice in neurorehabilitation.
