The project is really all about being able to ask people what it is that they need and then, based off of that information...to help people so that they can get as much therapy as possible, regardless of their socioeconomic status or how much money they have, or if they're in a rural area.
What if stroke recovery tools were affordable and accessible to everyone, no matter where they lived or their financial situation? That's the dream Elizabeth Vasquez is working towards. As a third-year PhD student at Stanford University, Elizabeth combines her passion for mechanical engineering with a mission to help stroke survivors. In this episode of 'Recovery After Stroke', she shares her groundbreaking research aimed at developing low-cost rehabilitative technology.
Elizabeth’s work is backed by the National Science Foundation and involves surveying both well-served and underserved stroke survivors to understand their needs. This valuable feedback is then used to create tools that can make a real difference in recovery. Whether you’re a stroke survivor, a caregiver, or someone interested in innovative healthcare solutions, Elizabeth’s story offers hope and practical insights.
