About
Dr. Yuan‐Yang Cheng is a leading researcher at the intersection of neurorehabilitation and wearable robotics, with a primary focus on restoring mobility and function in stroke patients. Her work systematically evaluates the clinical efficacy of cutting-edge assistive technologies, including soft robotic gloves and exoskeletons. In a landmark 2023 meta-analysis (22 citations), she synthesized evidence demonstrating that soft robotic gloves significantly improve motor recovery and functional abilities in stroke survivors. Her subsequent randomized controlled trial (21 citations) not only confirmed that robotic-exoskeleton-assisted gait rehabilitation enhances lower limb strength but also identified key predictive factors for significant improvement, offering clinicians a data-driven framework for patient selection. Dr. Cheng has further advanced the field by critically assessing the practical advantages of lightweight, soft robotic exosuits over traditional rigid exoskeletons (10 citations), highlighting their potential for broader clinical adoption. Through her rigorous, evidence-based approach, Dr. Cheng is shaping the future of personalized, technology-driven stroke rehabilitation, directly impacting how clinicians integrate wearable robotics into standard care.
