About
Yang Han is a leading researcher at the intersection of neurorehabilitation and brain-computer interfaces (BCIs), with a primary focus on restoring motor function in stroke patients. Her most significant contribution is the development and clinical validation of a brain-computer interface-controlled soft robotic glove (BCI-SRG) for upper limb rehabilitation. In her landmark 2025 randomized controlled fNIRS study, Han demonstrated that this innovative system not only improves motor recovery in subacute stroke patients but also induces measurable neural plasticity changes, as evidenced by functional near-infrared spectroscopy. This work, which has already garnered 8 citations shortly after publication, bridges the critical gap between BCI technology and practical clinical application. Han's research uniquely combines neuroimaging, rehabilitation engineering, and clinical trials to uncover the neural mechanisms underlying BCI-assisted motor recovery. Her findings have significant implications for designing more effective, personalized rehabilitation protocols, positioning her as a key figure in advancing neurorehabilitation technologies from the laboratory to the bedside.
