About
Dr. Ying Lau is a leading researcher in the transformative application of robotics across healthcare and education. Her work primarily focuses on robot-assisted rehabilitation and human-robot interaction, with a strong emphasis on improving clinical outcomes and user experiences. Dr. Lau has made major contributions by conducting rigorous systematic reviews and meta-analyses that synthesize evidence on robotic interventions. Notably, her 2022 study on robot-assisted distal training for post-stroke upper limb recovery (58 citations) provides critical insights into dexterity and functional gains, while her 2023 meta-analysis on overground robotic exoskeletons (22 citations) clarifies their impact on walking outcomes. Beyond rehabilitation, she explores the barriers and facilitators of robot-assisted education in higher education (19 citations) and the experiences of older adults with mobile telepresence robots, highlighting her commitment to inclusive, user-centered design. Her work also extends to pediatric care, as seen in her scoping review on humanoid robots for children with diabetes (30 citations). With a growing citation impact and a portfolio that bridges engineering, therapy, and pedagogy, Dr. Lau is shaping the future of assistive robotics and evidence-based practice.
