About
Won-Seok Kim is a leading researcher at the intersection of rehabilitation robotics, neurorehabilitation, and human-machine interaction. His work focuses on developing and validating robotic and neural technologies to restore motor function in patients with stroke and spinal cord injury. Kim’s major contributions include pioneering brain-computer interface (BCI)-controlled exoskeletons for clinical neurorehabilitation, with his highly cited 2022 paper (89 citations) critically assessing their readiness for widespread clinical adoption. He also co-founded the Advanced Robotic Therapy Integrated Centers (ARTIC) network (48 citations), an international collaboration that facilitates the application of rehabilitation technologies across multiple sites. Beyond upper-limb rehabilitation, Kim has advanced the design of meal-assistance robots by creating comprehensive user-experience guidelines that account for human-machine social interactions. His work on remote, internet-based telerobotics for post-stroke elbow assessment (18 citations) demonstrates his commitment to improving accessibility to rehabilitation care. Through his research, Kim has significantly advanced the evidence base for robotic therapy, making rehabilitation more effective, accessible, and patient-centered.
