Dr Francesca Stramandinoli conducted her PhD as a Marie Curie Fellow within the RobotDoC Initial Training Network, before receiving a scholarship award to attend one of the most important summer schools on machine learning held in Canberra, Australia. A year later, she had the honour of being invited to speak at the Innovation Convention organised by the European Commission in Brussels, Belgium. She is now a Senior Research Engineer, Human Robotics AI Expert at the United Technologies Research Center in Connecticut, USA.
“Studying at the University gave me the chance to join a well-established international research team. Thanks to that, I could interact with researchers leading the field of cognitive robotics and build a wide network of connections. I would definitely recommend undertaking research here. The University offers not only excellent training programmes in numerous fields, but also an inspiring, dynamic and international research environment.”
