There, he will lead Boston University&#8217;s Neuromotor Recovery Laboratory (BU-NRL). The BU-NRL\u00a0seeks to bring together clinicians, movement scientists, and engineers working at the intersection of the clinical and quantitative sciences under the research ethos of advancing personalized, evidence-based neurorehabilitation. A primary goal for the BU-NRL is to support innovation in rehabilitative wearable technologies and to leverage these advances to better the science and art of neurorehabilitation.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":11489,"template":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/urop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/profile\/13247"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/urop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/profile"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/urop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/profile"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/urop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/11489"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/urop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/profile\/13247\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":13251,"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/urop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/profile\/13247\/revisions\/13251"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/urop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=13247"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
