让假肢成为身体的一部分。
Ortiz Catalán 教授主导研发了首个直接与患者骨骼、神经和肌肉整合的假肢(TEDx, 2014)。首位植入这种神经肌肉骨骼假肢的患者已在日常生活中使用超过 10 年;装配这类高度整合仿生肢体的人,能够通过直接刺激截肢时被切断的神经,感知所触摸的物体。
他的仿生学研究涵盖:提升灵巧性的外科重建、神经接口、生物电信号采集电子技术、基于机器学习的运动意图解码,以及用于感觉反馈的神经刺激。可观看近期 WIRED 拍摄的纪录片 ,了解概况。

重新认识幻肢痛。
除了功能上的挑战,截肢者还常常会出现慢性神经病理性疼痛。Ortiz Catalán 教授在幻肢痛(PLP)领域开展了开创性研究,开发出基于机器学习以及虚拟现实和增强现实的治疗方法,目前已在全球范围内应用(视频示例):幻肢运动执行(Phantom Motor Execution,PME;The Lancet, 2016)以及渐进式运动训练(Progressive Motor Training,PMT;JNER, 2026)。
2018 年,他提出了 Stochastic Entanglement 假说 ,阐释 PLP 的起源,并提供了更好地理解和治疗幻肢痛的理论框架。此后,他的研究扩展到神经损伤和中风引起的疼痛,包括外科治疗方法。 进一步了解幻肢痛 →

从实验室走向临床。
为仿生学和疼痛研究开发的技术,也被应用于严重感觉运动障碍(如神经损伤和中风)的康复。

成果发表于最具影响力的期刊。
他是其高被引论文的第一作者,并在超过 80% 的论文中担任第一作者或资深作者,发表期刊包括 The Lancet、NEJM、Science Translational Medicine、Science Robotics 和 Nature Biomedical Engineering。
