About
Shifa Sulaiman is an emerging robotics researcher whose work spans rehabilitation engineering, human-robot interaction, and humanoid robot systems. Her most cited contribution, a 2022 systematic review on robotic exoskeletons for rehabilitation (26 citations), critically examines advancements in signal sensing, actuation, and control methods, addressing key limitations in existing assistive technologies. Complementing this, her work on collaborative robots — including reviews on cobots in industrial and service sectors and human-robot interaction in manufacturing scenarios — has collectively garnered nearly 40 citations, establishing her as a thoughtful voice in the growing field of safe human-robot collaboration. Sulaiman has also made notable technical contributions in humanoid robotics, developing kinematic and dexterity analyses for redundant dual-arm systems using screw theory, and implementing intelligent trajectory and path-planning algorithms for wheeled humanoid platforms. More recently, her research has expanded into prosthetics, with work on a novel soft continuum wrist section and tactile sensor validation for under-actuated prosthetic hands, reflecting a deepening commitment to dexterous assistive devices. With a publication record concentrated from 2021 to 2024 and growing citation momentum, Sulaiman represents a promising early-career researcher bridging theoretical robotics with real-world rehabilitative and industrial applications.
