About

Tomislav Bazina is an emerging researcher specializing in rehabilitation robotics, soft robotics, and human-machine interfaces, with a particular focus on restoring hand function for individuals affected by neurological conditions such as stroke and multiple sclerosis. His most notable contribution to date is the development of an innovative rehabilitation glove driven by soft pneumatic actuators, grounded in rigorous kinematic and workspace analysis of anatomical finger motion — work that has already garnered five citations since its 2024 publication. Bazina has further advanced the field by investigating strategies to reduce the complexity of hand kinematics through grasp-oriented intra-finger dependencies, offering practical solutions for assistive device design in activities of daily living. His more recent work introduces Koopman operator theory to grip force prediction via surface electromyography, demonstrating a sophisticated interdisciplinary approach that bridges control theory and biomedical engineering. Collectively, his research reflects a coherent and ambitious research agenda aimed at making robotic rehabilitation more adaptive, intuitive, and accessible — positioning him as a promising early-career voice in the growing field of wearable rehabilitative technology.
