About
Matthieu Piccoli is a leading researcher in the intersection of geriatric care and socially assistive robotics, with a primary focus on the human factors that determine successful technology adoption in healthcare settings. His most cited work, a 2024 study on the implementation of socially assistive robots in geriatric care institutions, has already garnered 12 citations, reflecting its timely and practical significance. Piccoli’s major contribution lies in systematically identifying the facilitating factors and barriers that healthcare professionals encounter when integrating robots into their daily workflows. Rather than focusing solely on technical development, he prioritizes the perspectives, needs, and expectations of nurses and caregivers—the frontline users whose buy-in is critical for real-world deployment. This user-centered approach has made his research essential reading for policymakers, hospital administrators, and roboticists aiming to design systems that are not only functional but also welcomed by staff. By bridging the gap between engineering and clinical practice, Piccoli’s work advances the goal of creating compassionate, effective care environments where technology supports, rather than displaces, human expertise.
