About

Selene Ruscitto’s research lies at the critical intersection of healthcare innovation and ethical technology deployment, with a particular focus on care robotics. Her most-cited work, “Opportunities and Problems of the Consensus Conferences in the Care Robotics” (2021, 12 citations), offers a foundational analysis of how consensus-building frameworks can guide the integration of robotic systems into clinical settings. Ruscitto’s major contribution is her nuanced examination of both the promise and the pitfalls of care robots—from their use in delicate surgical interventions and rehabilitation to training simulations and cognitive therapy. By systematically mapping these opportunities against ethical and practical challenges, she provides a roadmap for responsible adoption that balances technological capability with patient safety and human dignity. Her work has shaped discussions among policymakers, engineers, and healthcare professionals, earning recognition for its foresight in anticipating regulatory and social hurdles. Ruscitto’s scholarship is essential reading for anyone navigating the complex landscape of assistive robotics, offering a clear-eyed view of how to harness these tools without compromising care quality.
