Personal profile
Research areas
Dr. Emanuela Del Dottore received her bachelor’s and master’s degrees in Computer Science and Information Technology from the University of Pisa. In 2017, she received her Ph.D. in Biorobotics from Scuola Superiore S. Anna with a thesis focused on elaborating and implementing algorithms and control strategies for plant-inspired robotic systems. She has industry and research experience in soft robotics, embedded systems, programming, systems kinematics, image processing, and data analysis.
Her research focuses on formulating and implementing control and decision-making strategies for bioinspired robots. In this context, she proposes, investigates, and validates behavioral hypotheses concerning the movement, exploration strategies, and the emergence of high-level behaviors in living systems and extracts novel rules for the movements of biomimetic robotic systems. She is passionate about robotics, behavior analysis, swarm and collective behavior, and intelligent systems.
