معرفی
Erik C. Prinsen is an Associate Professor specializing in Biomechatronics and Rehabilitation Technology at the TechMed Centre. His research focuses on neurorehabilitation technologies, stroke recovery, prosthetics, and robotics-assisted therapies. He contributes to UN Sustainable Development Goals related to health and well-being.
Key research areas include stroke rehabilitation strategies, functional electrical stimulation (FES), and the integration of robotics in clinical settings. Notable work includes studies on caregiver-mediated telerehabilitation systems for stroke patients, hybrid lower limb rehabilitation systems, and systematic reviews on robot-assisted therapies.
Recent studies emphasize clinical feasibility of assist-as-needed systems and biomechanical adaptations in amputee populations. His work bridges engineering innovations with clinical outcomes, addressing challenges in gait restoration and motor recovery.
Prinsen has presented research findings at conferences including talks on prosthetic knee biomechanics and gait asymmetry in amputees. He has supervised 3 academic works and collaborates internationally on rehabilitation technologies.
