About
Yougun Won is a rehabilitation researcher whose work focuses on advancing neurorehabilitation technologies for stroke survivors, particularly through the development of accessible robotic systems for upper extremity training. In a landmark 2018 pilot study, Won introduced the Neuro-X®, a compact, cost-effective robot-aided training system designed to overcome the barriers of bulky and expensive rehabilitation devices. This work demonstrated significant functional improvements in stroke patients, offering a practical solution for widespread clinical adoption. With 12 citations and growing, this study has influenced the design of next-generation rehabilitation robotics. Won’s key contributions lie at the intersection of engineering and clinical neuroscience, emphasizing user-centered design and evidence-based therapy. By prioritizing affordability and portability, Won has helped democratize access to robotic rehabilitation, making it feasible for smaller clinics and home-based care. Their research continues to shape how technology can be integrated into post-stroke recovery, improving motor outcomes and quality of life for patients worldwide.
