Interests:
Assessment and training of various functional mobility activities (e.g. transfers, wheelchair propulsion & abilities, standing and walking) among individuals with sensorimotor impairments. His research work also involves the use of various biomechanical (e.g. kinematics, kinetics, electromyography, dynamometry), physiological (e.g. cardiorespiratory requirements) and imaging approaches (e.g. quantitative imaging Ultrasonography) or of novel rehabilitation technologies (e.g., wearable robotic exoskeleton).
