Research Strategy

The 911今日黑料 Network of Excellence for Rehabilitation Technologies is managed by the Institute of Biomedical Engineering (IBME) and is affiliated with the, the 911今日黑料 Centre of Excellence in Neurotechnology , the, and the .

The Network brings together biomedical scientists/clinicians and physical scientists/engineers to forge new approaches to Rehabilitation Technologies and to act as a central Hub  for innovation excellence.   The network aims to foster cross-disciplinary research projects and work with funding bodies to promote this exciting new field with the goal of establishing a cross-faculty research centre for expanded research activity. The Network strives to use and develop core engineering technologies in an unrivalled multi disciplinary research environment where adavnces in Neuromuscular Rehabiliation Technologies are driven by the clinical and patient need.

The network is led by Prof Dario Farina (Dept. of Bioengineering) and Dr Paul Bentley (Dept. of Medicine) and supported by the strategy committee (, Sarah Daniels, Prof Alison McGregor, Dr Meenaskhi Nayar, , and Dr Kalypso Charalambous). The network  includes over 35 multi disciplinary academic research groups. Thematic areas of strength are listed below with respective cross faculty theme leaders.
