This joint program reviews the state-of-the-art of the field of model-based assistive robotic technologies for medicine and rehabilitation in the USA and Japan, outlines the fundamental science and technologies in this area, and proposes models for future collaborative research between Japan and USA by building on the mutual strengths. In particular, gait training for stroke patients using exoskeletons is studied.The field of medical and rehabilitation robotics offers much in terms of broad societal impact. In addition, the project exposes graduate students and faculty to the culture of research in Japan, and more broadly, Asia. Today, Japan leads in many areas of robotics and automation. The students in the NSF-JST program interact with researchers in Japan and visit prominent universities and research laboratories. This exposure provides excellent training for the students and prepares them for careers in industry and academia globally.

本联合项目回顾了美国和日本在基于模型的医学和康复辅助机器人技术领域的最新进展，概述了该领域的基础科学和技术，并通过建立双方的优势，提出了日本和美国未来合作研究的模式。特别地，研究了使用外骨骼进行脑卒中患者的步态训练。医疗和康复机器人领域在广泛的社会影响方面提供了很多。此外，该项目还使研究生和教师接触到日本乃至更广泛的亚洲的研究文化。今天，日本在机器人和自动化的许多领域处于领先地位。NSF-JST项目的学生与日本的研究人员互动，并参观著名的大学和研究实验室。这种接触为学生提供了良好的培训，并为他们在全球工业和学术界的职业生涯做好了准备。
