| dc.description | Michelle J. Johnson is as Associate Professor of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation at the University of Pennsylvania. Her research is mainly in the area of robot-mediated rehabilitation. she is focused on the investigation and rehabilitation of dysfunction due to aging, neural disease, and neural injury. She is particularly interested in 1) exploring the relationships between brain plasticity and behavioral/motor control changes after robot-assisted interventions; 2) quantifying motor impairment and motor control of the upper limb in real world tasks such as drinking; and 3) defining the methods to maintain therapeutic effectiveness while administering local and remote, robot-mediated interventions. | en_US |

| dc.description.abstract | Robots in Medicine are here to stay. While their use in medicine and rehabilitation is increasing in high income countries, there is still a need to find ways to extend their utility to more diverse rehabilitation populations and into in more low resource settings both locally and globally. This talk will discuss the efforts of my lab to develop affordable robot systems that can be used to assess and train motor and cognitive impaired individuals in low resource settings both in the USA and Botswana. I will discuss insights gained from deploying these systems to understand neurocognitive and neuromotor impairment in persons with stroke, with HIV and with both stroke and HIV. | en_US |
