About

Anastasios Alexiadis is a researcher specializing in social robotics, pediatric healthcare technology, and digital health interventions, with a particular focus on leveraging autonomous systems to improve child health outcomes. His work sits at a compelling intersection of human-robot interaction, preventive medicine, and behavioral science, addressing some of the most pressing challenges in modern pediatric care. Alexiadis has made significant contributions to the field through his development of social robot-based platforms designed to combat childhood obesity — a global public health crisis closely linked to diabetes, cancer, and long-term adult health complications. His platforms integrate interactive games, automated diet tracking, and behavioral engagement strategies to create scalable, child-friendly health interventions. His 2023 systematic review of social robot interventions in child healthcare, which has already garnered 34 citations, stands as a foundational reference for researchers and clinicians seeking to understand the evidence base in this emerging domain. With a growing body of work accumulating over 70 citations, Alexiadis has demonstrated sustained impact in applying cutting-edge robotics to real-world health challenges. His research on robot acceptance among children further underscores his commitment to translating technological innovation into practical, user-centered solutions that can meaningfully improve young lives.
