 ywhere: Using Robot Technology to Advance Neuromotor Rehabilitation\n\n\n\
 n      \n      \n\n\n\nMeghan Huber, PhDAssistant Professor of Mechanical 
 and Industrial EngineeringUniversity of Massachusetts AmherstMonday, Decem
 ber 04, 2023Gateway 100212:00pm – 12:50pm\nAbstract:The primary aim of neu
 romotor rehabilitation is to attain functional improvements that transcend
  the laboratory and clinical settings. A key strategy involves shifting mo
 tor training from controlled environments to patients’ daily lives. In thi
 s presentation, I will discuss our research exploring the potential of in-
 home rehabilitation and how advancing our fundamental understanding of hum
 an neuromotor learning and the use of robotic technology can enhance real-
 world gait rehabilitation.\nBiography: Meghan is currently an Assistant Pr
 ofessor in the Department of Mechanical and Industrial Engineering at Univ
 ersity of Massachusetts Amherst, with adjunct appointments in the Departme
 nt of Biomedical Engineering and the Manning College of Information and Co
 mputer Sciences. She is the director of the Human Robot Systems Laboratory
 , and her research focuses on understanding how humans and robots can lear
 n from the physical interactions of one another.\nMeghan received her B.S.
  degree in Biomedical Engineering from Rutgers University in 2009 and her 
 M.S. degree in Biomedical Engineering from The University of Texas at Dall
 as in 2011. She recently received her Ph.D. in Bioengineering from Northea
 stern University in 2016. During her doctoral training, she was a Visiting
  Junior Scientist in the Autonomous Motion Department at the Max Planck In
 stitute for Intelligent Systems in Tübingen, Germany in 2014. She was a po
 stdoctoral research associate in the Department of Mechanical Engineering 
 at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology from 2016-2020.\n\nPlease rea
