About
Dr. Jufeng Li is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of social robotics and developmental intervention, whose work focuses on leveraging human-robot interaction to support children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Their most cited study, "Using a social robot for children with autism: A therapist‐robot interactive model" (2022), introduces the innovative social robot YANG, designed to facilitate daily therapeutic training through a novel therapist-robot interactive framework. This contribution addresses a critical challenge in autism therapy—bridging the gap between robotic potential and practical clinical application—by creating a model where the robot serves as a collaborative partner to human therapists, enhancing engagement and consistency in interventions. With 7 citations, this work has laid foundational groundwork for integrating socially assistive robots into real-world therapeutic settings, inspiring further research on robot-mediated behavioral and communication skill development. Dr. Li’s achievements highlight a commitment to translational robotics, blending technical design with empathetic, evidence-based care to improve outcomes for neurodiverse children. Their research continues to shape the future of assistive technology in pediatric therapy.
