Two decades of breakthroughs: charting the future of NeuroEngineering and Rehabilitation.

Abstract

The Journal of NeuroEngineering and Rehabilitation (JNER) has become a major actor for the dissemination of knowledge in the scientific community, bridging the gaps between innovative neuroengineering and rehabilitation. Major fields of innovations have emerged these last 25 years, such as machine learning and the ongoing AI revolution, wearable technologies, human machine interfaces, robotics, advanced prosthetics, functional electrical stimulation and various neuromodulation techniques. With the major burden of disorders impacting on the central/peripheral nervous system and the musculoskeletal system both in adults and in children, successful tailored neurorehabilitation has become a major objective for the research and clinical community at a world scale. JNER contributes to this challenging goal, publishing groundbreaking cutting-edge research using the open access model. The multidisciplinary approaches at the crossroads of biomedical engineering, neuroscience, physical medicine and rehabilitation make of the journal a unique growing platform welcoming breakthrough discoveries to reshape the field and restore function.
