Spotlight of the Week #6
08/2018 – This Spotlight of the Week goes to Macauley O’Connor! Macauley is a Year 2 Doctorate of Physical Therapy student in Sargent College. He is currently a research assistant in the Neuromotor Recovery Lab and the Center for Neurorehabilitation at Boston University. At the NRL, he is playing an instrumental role across many different projects, include the ReWalk Restore clinical trial with Spaulding Rehabilitation Network and our exosuit research with the Wyss Institute. His goal in the lab is to learn more about how assistive robotic technology can improve rehabilitation outcomes for patients, especially those with neurological conditions. Macauley’s sweet talent is that he used to work as a gelato maker!
