Research Summary
I am a Research Fellow in Soft Robotics and Haptics at the Department of Mechanical Engineering at UCL. In 2021, I was awarded UCL Healthcare Engineering Impact Fellow (IHE). My focus during my education was on robotics, nonlinear dynamics, and control. I focused on different types of robots from wheeled to parallel to soft robotic systems. I was a research fellow from 2016 to 2018 in the field of cognitive and social robotics at Sharif University of Technology. I put together my engineering experience and social science to join the Intelligent Mobility Group/Lab (IM@UCL) in 2019. In the same year, I joined the Soft Haptics & Robotics Group/Lab at UCL as a research fellow focusing on developing innovative stiffness-controllable mechanisms and soft finger prostheses. Currently, I am interested in how robotictechnologies, especially soft robots, can physically or socially interact withhumans.
