Staff Profile

I am a Biomedical Engineer with a focus on robotics, human-robot interaction and human augmentation.

I use robotics to study human motor control and to augment human abilities with extra robotic limbs.

I have worked on the European project CONBOTS, which aims at designing a new class of robots to physically couple people to facilitate learning and improve efficiency during the training of handwriting and music skills.

I was involved in the European project NIMA “Non-invasive Interface for Movement Augmentation", whose aim is to design, build and test interfaces that allow persons to control artificial limbs in coordination with their natural limbs.

Currently, I am working on my independent research project "How humans can learn to control an extra robotic arm", with which I was awarded the 2-years (December 2024-November 2026) UKIC postdoctoral fellowship by the Royal Academy of Engineering.
