Diana Rimaud is a French researcher affiliated with Université Jean Monnet Saint-Étienne and Saint Etienne University Hospital. As a research engineer at the Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Department since 2007 and research assistant at LIBM Laboratory (Inter-University Laboratory of Human Movement Biology) since 2018, she focuses on neuromuscular fatigue, neurophysiological adaptations, and rehabilitation protocols for clinical populations including stroke survivors, multiple sclerosis patients, and post-COVID-19 ICU patients.

• Key research areas: Neuromuscular fatigue analysis
• Neurophysiological responses in clinical populations
• Medical device evaluation (compression bandages, orthoses)
• Adapted physical activity for neurological disabilities
• Trail-running performance determinants

Her work includes transcranial stimulation applications for hemiplegia recovery, compression therapy effects on lactate dynamics, and fatigue assessment tools. She has published 18 articles, supervised 30+ students, and coordinated over 90 research projects.
