Short Bio

I am graduated in Psychology (2004) and Computer Science (2008), and received a Master degree in Instructional Psychology (2007) from Universidad Central de Venezuela (UCV). I then obtained a Master degree in robotics (2012), and did my Ph.D. degree in robotics (2016) in Ecole Centrale de Nantes (ECN), France. I have done postdoctoral research in bio-inspired underwater robotics (Federal University of Rio Grande, Brazil, 2016), cognitive neurorobotics (Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology, CNRU, Japan, 2018), and cognitive robotics (ANITI-LAAS, Toulouse 2020). In 2021, I became associate professor at University of Lorraine. I do research in the department of Complex Systems, Artificial Intelligence and Robotics at LORIA.

Research interests

Cognitive and neural robotics, human-robot interaction, clinical psychology, educational psychology, social psychology, 4E cognition, artificial intelligence, and computer science, among others. More recently, I have focused more on the study of social cognition through human-robot interaction, inspired by natural behavior and cognition.
