Workshop on Robotics for Neurology and Rehabilitation
September, 30th 2011 San Francisco, California
Workshop ID: FW6
From 9:30 to 18:00, room 9 (Continental Ballroom) floor map
The recent advances in computational models of the human body, in measuring technology and in neuro-stimulation have led to cutting edge applications in the field of Neurology and Rehabilitation. Applications of Robotics in those fields are now common. However there is still a lack of common ground and common knowledge so that these interdisciplinary fields find a proper balance. We propose to bridge a gap between the clinical and robotics aspects in order to exchange new ideas and approaches. This workshop covers at once several aspects of Robotics for neurology and rehabilitation: the human body dynamics modeling, the functional electrical stimulation, the neuro-muscular modeling as well as the clinical development of robotics systems for rehabilitation.
After carefull review of the papers we have received for contribution to the workshop and according to the open slots we have selected 4 papers to be include in the program. We would like to thank everyone that has considered submitting a paper.
