About

Gabriele Santangelo is a leading researcher at the intersection of artificial intelligence, robotics, and rehabilitation engineering. His work primarily focuses on integrating AI and machine learning into robotic systems to enhance human–robot interaction, particularly in clinical and remote operational settings. Santangelo’s most impactful contribution is his 2025 systematic review on AI/ML applications in multi-domain robotic rehabilitation, which has already garnered 28 citations—a strong indicator of its influence in shaping future research directions. This work critically evaluates trends, identifies critical gaps, and outlines a roadmap for deploying intelligent robotic therapies that are precise, repetitive, and task-specific, ultimately aiming to improve patient outcomes. Beyond rehabilitation, Santangelo explores real-time point cloud transmission for immersive teleoperation of autonomous mobile robots, addressing safety and remote intervention challenges. His 2024 systematic review further cements his expertise in machine learning for robotics-assisted rehabilitation. Through these contributions, Santangelo is helping to define how autonomous systems can safely and effectively augment human capabilities, both in medical recovery and in hazardous remote environments.
