Research has led to developments including but not limited to: presenting at ICHMS 2024 on assessing the effects of a soft passive lowback exoskeleton for emergency medical services; showcasing research at HRI 2024 on evaluating trust networks in multi-human-robot teams.
Research Experience
Leads the NeuroergoLab at UW-Madison, focusing on neuroergonomics, especially the neurophysiological mechanisms of human fatigue (both physical and cognitive).
Background
Research interests include understanding, quantifying, and predicting human states such as stress and fatigue, particularly in human-technology interactions within safety-critical environments (emergency response, space exploration, oil and gas). Also focuses on enhancing and supporting embodied cognition through equitable multimodal interface designs, wearable technologies, fluent human-robotic interactions (HRI), brain-computer interfaces (BCIs), and neurostimulation.
Miscellany
Looking for passionate new PhD students, Postdocs, and Master students to join the team.
