DAY 10 - Introducing Heroes Project !
The “Human Extremity Robotic Rehabilitation and Outcome Enhancement for Stroke” (HEROES) project aims to investigate and promote neuroplasticity after chronic stroke with severe motor disability. Neuroplasticity is the ability of the brain to reorganize and regain function and we use the interface between man and machine to achieve that. The project includes non-invasive technologies and the long-term goal is to use them as tools for successful clinical rehabilitation of post-stroke patients.

🚀 HEROES project at the 12th scientific conference of the Medical School AUTH. Our MD student, Diamanto Milopoulou rocked the stage this morning with her presentation on robotic rehabilitation of chronic stroke patients showcasing the neuroscientific base of project. We're beyond thrilled to communicate our project outcomes so stay tuned for more exciting updates! 🤖🚀🧠 Ελληνικό Ίδρυμα Έρευνας & Καινοτομίας - ΕΛΙΔΕΚ AUTH Medical Physics & Digital Innovation Lab
project just scored big at the 12th Students Scientific Conference of the Medical School AUTH! Our Post-Doctoral Research Associate Niki Pandria presented her distinguished doctoral dissertation.
Way to go, Niki! We're thrilled to have you on our team. 🎉 Ελληνικό Ίδρυμα Έρευνας & Καινοτομίας - ΕΛΙΔΕΚ AUTH Medical Physics & Digital Innovation Lab
The power may have gone out, but the excitement was electric at the 12th Students Scientific Conference of the Medical School AUTH!⚡️🎉 The project stunned the audience with cutting-edge research on the design and development of a wearable exoskeletal device for neural rehabilitation of the human hand.
Despite the darkness, our talented Ph.D. candidate, Vicky Fiska, lit up the stage with her presentation and showed us all how to handle a challenging situation with poise and professionalism! 🌟🦸♀️ We can't wait to see what other incredible feats will achieve in the future.
Stay tuned! 😎 AUTH Medical Physics & Digital Innovation Lab Ελληνικό Ίδρυμα Έρευνας & Καινοτομίας - ΕΛΙΔΕΚ

🎉We are thrilled to announce that the project, funded by the HFRI - Hellenic Foundation for Research & Innovation, has achieved a major milestone! 📝Kostas Mitsopoulos, Vicky Fiska, Alkinoos Athanasiou, and the entire , research team have published the first journal paper titled "NeuroSuitUp: System Architecture & Validation of a Motor Rehabilitation Wearable Robotics & Serious Game Platform" in the prestigious journal Sensors MDPI.
👏Congratulations to our very own Kostas Mitsopoulos for his incredible accomplishment as the first author of the paper, which has an impact factor of 3.847! This publication represents the remarkable work of the project. The project through wearable robotics, brain-machine interaction, the use of a virtual environment, and serious gaming aims to improve the neurorehabilitation outcomes of patients with chronic stroke and motor disability.
💡We would like to express our heartfelt gratitude to the HFRI - Hellenic Foundation for Research & Innovation (Ελληνικό Ίδρυμα Έρευνας & Καινοτομίας - ΕΛΙΔΕΚ) and our scientific supervisor, Professor, Panagiotis Bamidis for their invaluable support and guidance throughout this project.
🚀We are excited to continue pushing the boundaries of research and innovation in motor rehabilitation and look forward to sharing more updates with you as our work progresses.
Stay tuned for more exciting news from the project!
