Personal profile

Research profile

My research focuses on sensory feedback for upper-limb prosthetics and neurorehabilitation technologies, aimed at supporting amputees and individuals with neurological conditions or injuries in learning and recovering sensorimotor functions.

During my PhD, I focused on sensory-based rehabilitation techniques for individuals suffering from central or peripherical neuropathies. Relying on the physiological models of sensory feedback integration into motor control, my work aimed at biomimetically restoring tactile information in humans.
