About
Yi-Yu Chen is a leading researcher in neurorehabilitation, specializing in post-stroke motor recovery through innovative robotic and pharmacological interventions. Her work centers on optimizing treatment schedules for spastic upper limbs, where she demonstrated that combining robot-assisted training with Botulinum toxin A injections significantly enhances outcomes—a finding published in a 2021 study that has garnered 10 citations and informed clinical rehabilitation protocols. Chen further explores the neural mechanisms underlying hand function recovery, as evidenced by her 2022 pilot study on bilateral sensorimotor cortical communication during multi-modal hand training. This research, though early-stage, has already attracted 2 citations for its novel insights into how bimanual and mirror therapies modulate brain connectivity. Her contributions bridge the gap between engineering and clinical practice, offering evidence-based strategies for stroke rehabilitation. Chen’s work is characterized by rigorous trial design and a focus on translating mechanistic understanding into tangible patient benefits, making her a notable figure in the field of neurorehabilitation and a valuable resource for students and clinicians seeking to advance post-stroke care.
