Dr. Jieun Cho is a physical therapist and rehabilitation scientist specializing in neurological and robotic rehabilitation. She received both her M.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees in Physical Therapy from Sahmyook University Graduate School in South Korea. Her clinical background includes work at leading rehabilitation institutions such as Bucheon Seongshim Rehabilitation Hospital, Myongji Chunhae Rehabilitation Hospital, and the National Rehabilitation Center, Ministry of Health and Welfare. Her primary research interests include stroke rehabilitation, balance and gait assessment, fall prevention, and machine learning-based analysis of motor function. She is actively involved in developing and validating quantitative assessment tools that integrate robotics, proprioception, and assistive technologies (e.g., ankle-foot orthoses, upper-limb exoskeletons). Her research also addresses community participation and ADL improvement through data-driven, patient-centered interventions. Dr. Cho has authored more than 14 SCI-indexed and 3 KCI-indexed publications, holds 11 patents (10 in Korea, 1 in the United States), and has presented extensively at domestic and international scientific conferences. Her work seeks to bridge clinical practice with technological innovation in rehabilitation.
