The TAILOR project is a multidisciplinary European doctoral network bringing together a variety of players from the field of rehabilitation robotics. Its aim is "Training the next generation of researchers that will bring rehab robots to clinical practice".

For this a novel Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Exoskeleton-based therapy will be developed, with the initial aim to improve gait rehabilitation for stroke survivors. The implementation of AI should increase the autonomy of employed exoskeleton, ease the workload of the physiotherapists by helping with therapy planning and make the whole system more intuitive to use.

 

Tasks Roessingh

Roessingh will be responsible for evaluating the newly developed approach regarding their added benefit, usability, safety and the feasibility of their clinical application for the stakeholders. Roessingh will support this evaluation with their long-standing experience in clinical translation and stakeholder-centered research. The evaluation process includes the development of standardized protocols, data collection on therapy outcomes, and iterative refinement based on feedback from end-users. The goal is to ensure that the technologies are not only technically robust but also practical and effective in real-world clinical environments.
