About

Dr. Sabine Brunswicker is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of human-robot interaction, artificial intelligence, and cognitive health, with a particular focus on dementia care and emotional intelligence in technology. Her work centers on developing socially assistive robots that can detect and respond to human emotional states, aiming to mitigate agitation and improve safety for high-risk patients. In her landmark 2024 protocol study, which has already garnered 5 citations, she outlines a groundbreaking framework for embedding emotional intelligence into care companion robots, addressing the critical need to reduce fall risks among the 6.7 million Americans living with dementia—a number projected to double by 2060. This work demonstrates her commitment to translating complex AI and robotics research into tangible, compassionate solutions for vulnerable populations. Dr. Brunswicker’s contributions are shaping the future of empathetic patient-robot interaction, bridging the gap between technical innovation and real-world clinical impact. Her research not only advances the field of socially assistive robotics but also offers hope for improving quality of life and safety for individuals with dementia and their caregivers.
