About
Juhi Kaboski is a leading researcher whose work sits at the critical intersection of assistive technology, social robotics, and neurodevelopmental disorders. Her most impactful contribution is a pioneering pilot study on a summer robotics camp designed for adolescents with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). This highly cited work (76 citations) demonstrated that structured human-robot interaction (HRI) could significantly reduce social anxiety while simultaneously improving both social and vocational skills—a dual outcome that has shaped subsequent interventions in the field. Kaboski is also a strong advocate for diversifying the robotics and HRI workforce. Her research on "unconventional students" argues that the field benefits from the perspectives of social science and humanities scholars, and she has documented initiatives to attract these non-traditional learners. By bridging clinical psychology with engineering education, Kaboski’s work not only provides evidence-based tools for improving quality of life for individuals with ASD but also challenges the field of robotics to become more inclusive and interdisciplinary. Her research remains a foundational reference for anyone exploring the therapeutic and educational applications of social robots.
