Dr. Gianluca Manduca

I [M.Sc. in Automation and Control Eng., PhD in Biorobotics (cum laude)] am a post-doc at The BioRobotics Institute of Scuola Superiore Sant’Anna of Pisa. I graduated in Automation and Control Engineering at Politecnico di Milano; before embarking on his PhD path, I spent a period as a visiting scholar at the Center for Automotive Research (CAR) of The Ohio State University, Columbus, OH, USA. The background in automation and control formed during studies initially contributed to the automotive sector, with work related to autonomous driving and lithium-ion battery modeling. Currently, I deal with biorobotic systems and biosensors managed through artificial intelligence techniques, with application to underwater robots and environmental monitoring. I am involved in several national and international research projects.
