B.S., Mechanical Engineering, George Washington University, 1987

Biography in Brief:

Peter Lum's research interests involve understanding the principles that underlie human movement control, and applying these concepts to the development of novel rehabilitation treatments for restoration of motor function following neurologic injury. He is particularly interested in the use of robotics and technology for neuro-rehabilitation after stroke.

He has served on the program committee for the International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics since 1999, and currently serves on the Advisory Board for the Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago NIDDR RERC on "Machines Assisting Recovery from Stroke". He has served as Associate Editor of IEEE Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering, and regularly reviews for several peer-review journals.
