About
Giulia Paggetti’s research lies at the intersection of sensorimotor neuroscience and haptic perception, exploring how the brain integrates sensory feedback for precise motor control. Her work has significantly advanced our understanding of the posterior parietal cortex’s role in stereopsis and hand-eye coordination during complex motor tasks, providing critical insights into the neural mechanisms underlying spatial awareness and movement. Additionally, her studies on stiffness discrimination during pressing and pinching of virtual springs have direct implications for telerobotics and haptic interfaces, revealing the perceptual limits that inform the design of more intuitive remote manipulation systems. With over 15 citations across her most-cited papers, Paggetti’s contributions are recognized for bridging fundamental neuroscience and applied technology. Her notable achievement includes demonstrating how different exploratory procedures—such as pressing versus pinching—affect our ability to perceive material properties, a finding that has practical value for prosthetic design and virtual reality. Through her methodical approach, Paggetti continues to shape how we understand the interplay between perception, action, and artificial environments.
