About
Dr. Giulia Palego is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of pediatric healthcare and human-robot interaction, with a primary focus on preoperative anxiety management in children. Her most notable contribution is an experimental study demonstrating how humanoid robots, specifically the Estrabot, can significantly reduce anxiety levels in young patients awaiting surgery. Conducted at Azienda Ospedaliero Universitaria delle Marche Hospital, this work has garnered 6 citations and represents a novel, compassionate approach to pediatric care. By integrating robotics into clinical settings, Dr. Palego addresses a critical gap in non-pharmacological anxiety interventions, offering a scalable, child-friendly alternative to traditional methods. Her research not only advances the field of pediatric anesthesiology and perioperative care but also highlights the therapeutic potential of social robots in healthcare. Dr. Palego’s work is particularly impactful for students and researchers interested in human-robot interaction, child psychology, and innovative patient-centered technologies. Through her experimental design and interdisciplinary collaboration, she has laid the groundwork for future studies on robotic-assisted care, positioning herself as a key figure in the emerging domain of pediatric robotic therapy.
