About
Nicola Laurieri is a researcher at the intersection of human-robot interaction and healthcare, with a primary focus on socially assistive robotics. Her most cited work, a 2023 feasibility study on eye gazing in socially assistive robotics for intensive care unit scenarios, explores how non-verbal cues from robots can enhance patient communication and emotional support in high-stress medical environments. This pioneering contribution addresses the critical need for empathetic, non-invasive robotic assistance in critical care, where traditional interaction may be limited. While her citation count is currently modest, the study’s relevance to emerging telemedicine and patient-centered care signals its growing impact. Laurieri’s work is notable for its practical application in real-world clinical settings, bridging robotics engineering with patient psychology. Her research underscores the potential of socially assistive robots to improve patient outcomes and reduce caregiver burden, positioning her as a promising voice in the field of human-robot interaction and healthcare innovation.
