Giulia Scorza Azzarà is a determined, practical, and logical person. She likes to challenge herself and learn new things.
She received her B.Sc. degree in Biomedical Engineering in 2019 and her M.Sc. degree in Robotics Engineering in 2021 from the University of Genoa. In 2021, she started her Ph.D. in Bioengineering and Robotics within the Curriculum of Cognitive Robotics, Interaction, and Rehabilitation Technologies. She is working at the Italian Institute of Technology (IIT) of Genoa in the research line of Robotics Brain and Cognitive Sciences (RBCS).
Her principal research interest is Human-Robot Interaction (HRI), with a focus on shared perceptions in joint actions with humanoid robots. The thin line between human and artificial intelligence has always fascinated her. She chases the idea that starting from human-human observation and building simplified models, new applications can be developed to improve the functionalities of the machines during human-robot interaction.
