Biography

Dr. Chandramouli Krishnan is a professor in the Department of Biomedical Engineering and Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation. He leads the Neuromuscular Rehabilitation Robotics Laboratory (NeuRRo Lab), which focuses on developing effective and efficient rehabilitation methods for individuals with neurological and orthopedic disorders. His research combines mechanistic and interventional approaches to enhance the understanding of neuromuscular function and regulation in the context of movement control and plasticity. The lab works on building low-cost technologies, including passive and semi-passive robots, and tests devices to improve neuromuscular function in patients with various conditions such as stroke, cerebral palsy, ACL injuries, arthritis, knee amputations, and joint replacements. The recovery of neuromotor performance is evaluated through sophisticated techniques that provide insights into biomechanical, neurophysiological, and clinical changes during rehabilitation. Dr. Krishnan's ultimate goal is to facilitate better rehabilitation outcomes for individuals suffering from a range of neuromuscular dysfunctions.
