About
Michele Mingardi is a leading researcher at the intersection of human factors, cognitive ergonomics, and Industry 5.0, with a focused expertise on human–robot collaboration (HRC) in advanced manufacturing. Her work is distinguished by a pioneering integration of psychophysiological measures—specifically eye-tracking and cardiac activity—to objectively assess mental workload and cognitive states during real-world assembly tasks. Mingardi’s most cited paper (2023, 26 citations) introduces a novel framework for evaluating senior workers’ mental workload in collaborative robot (cobot) environments, directly addressing the human-centric goals of Industry 5.0. She has also made critical contributions to understanding trust and negative attitudes toward robots (2024, 9 citations), bridging psychological and ethical dimensions with practical industrial implementation. Her recent investigations into pupil responses as indicators of learning and adaptation (2024) further showcase her innovative use of non-invasive biosignals to track operator skill development in real time. By combining rigorous experimental design with applied insights, Mingardi’s work is shaping safer, more adaptive, and more inclusive human-robot workplaces, earning her recognition as a key voice in the future of collaborative manufacturing.
