About
Katarzyna Stachnik is a leading researcher at the intersection of robotics, gerontechnology, and multi-criteria decision-making, with a primary focus on enhancing elderly care through intelligent automation. Her most impactful work, a 2023 review and optimization study, has garnered 86 citations and stands as a cornerstone in the field. In this paper, Stachnik not only synthesizes the state-of-the-art in social and service robots for aging populations but also pioneers a multi-criteria optimization model that systematically assigns robotic resources to maximize care efficiency. This model addresses the complex trade-offs between cost, user satisfaction, and operational constraints—a significant advance for both healthcare logistics and human-robot interaction. Her contributions are notable for bridging theoretical optimization with real-world qualitative case studies, offering a practical framework that policymakers and healthcare administrators can directly apply. By demonstrating how robots can be deployed to support, rather than replace, human caregivers, Stachnik’s work has shaped discussions on ethical, scalable eldercare solutions. Her research continues to influence scholars in robotics, operations research, and gerontology, marking her as a key voice in the responsible integration of technology into aging societies.
