view labAbout Me
Chen Yang, PhD, is a postdoctoral research fellow at the Max N?der Lab for Rehabilitation Technologies and Outcomes 嫩B研究院 (Shirley Ryan 嫩B研究院) and Northwestern University. He received his PhD degree in Kinesiology at McGill University in 2021, with a focus on biomechanics. His PhD research investigated human body adaptations to muscle fatigue from the perspectives of inter-segmental coordination, variability, and electromyography. Currently, his research at the Max N?der Lab is about using spinal cord stimulation combined with gait training to help stroke survivors improve functional gait.
