About
Ana Carolina Rocha Peixoto is a leading researcher at the intersection of ergonomics, occupational health, and advanced manufacturing. Her work focuses on the digitalization of musculoskeletal risk assessment, particularly in robotic-assisted assembly workstations, aiming to replace subjective observational methods with objective, repeatable digital tools. Her most-cited paper (2021, 19 citations) critically evaluates how emerging technologies can enhance the reliability of ergonomic evaluations, addressing the low repeatability and subjectivity inherent in traditional approaches. Peixoto’s contributions are pivotal in developing safer, data-driven workplaces that integrate human factors with Industry 4.0 innovations. By bridging the gap between occupational biomechanics and automation, she provides practical frameworks for reducing work-related musculoskeletal disorders. Her research is widely recognized for its applied impact, influencing both academic discourse and industrial safety protocols. Peixoto’s work continues to shape the future of human-centered manufacturing, making her a key voice in the evolution of digital ergonomics.
