REST: Reconfigurable lower limb Exoskeleton for effective Stroke Treatment in residential settings

Lead Research Organisation: King's College London
Department Name: Informatics

Abstract

Abstracts are not currently available in GtR for all funded research. This is normally because the abstract was not required at the time of proposal submission, but may be because it included sensitive information such as personal details.

Description Collaboration with Frank Cooksey Rehabilitation Unit 
Organisation King's College Hospital NHS Foundation Trust (NCH)
Country United Kingdom 
Sector Public 
PI Contribution The specialist consultants at the Frank Cooksey Rehabilitation Unit are very interested in our lower-limb, reconfigurable rehabilitation exoskeleton designs, and are keen to help us ameliorate them, in accordance with patient requirements and data.
Collaborator Contribution The specialist consultants at the Frank Cooksey Rehabilitation Unit have met with us to provide invaluable insight into the refinement of our lower-limb, reconfigurable rehabilitation exoskeleton designs. They have also supported a grant funding bid that we recently submitted to the EPSRC.
Impact The Frank Cooksey Rehabilitation Unit have supported a grant funding bid that we recently submitted to the EPSRC, and will be liaising very closely with us if our application is successful.

Results and Impact The King's Impact Reception 2024 was hosted by the Vice-Chancellor of King's College London, and is an annual fixture in the King's calendar. It brought together key internal and external stakeholders, donors, alumni and academics to find out more about the breadth and depth of King's work and be inspired by its impact. The Vice-Chancellor's office identified our work on lower-limb, reconfigurable exoskeletons as a key impact case of KCL.
