Q1:

Name: Dr. Carlos Rodríguez-López
Affiliation: Teaching and Research in Neurorehabilitation, Lecturer University Schools Gimbernat, University of Cantabria, La Coruña, Spain
Interests: peripheral nerve disorders and neuropathic behavior; pain in neurological patients; therapeutic exercise in neurorehabilitation; perceptual disorders after a central lesion; robotics and technology in neurorehabilitation
“As a lecturer and clinician, my main interest when reviewing papers is to be updated on developments in the neurorehabilitation field and help through my contribution to set the standards concerning solutions for people who have suffered a lesion linked to their nervous system. Also, I am very much interested in papers offering different ways to understand common signs and symptoms in the field, such as spasticity or neuropathic behavior in such conditions, as I strongly believe that understanding peripheral nerve adaptations after neurological disorder onset can shine a light on the perceptual and motor alterations we see in the clinical setting. The review process also allows me to have a broader look at my field and to get in touch with researchers worldwide, with different points of view, opening my clinical reasoning to new perspectives in neurorehabilitation.”
