Edward Taub

Edward Taub is a neuroscientist best known for his research on neuroplasticity—the brain's ability to rewire itself. He developed innovative therapies, like modified constraint-induced movement therapy, which help stroke and injury patients regain movement by encouraging use of affected limbs. His work has advanced understanding of brain recovery and has influenced rehabilitation practices. Despite initial controversy over his research methods, Taub's contributions have significantly impacted neurological treatment approaches.
