Biography:
Marco Ghislieri is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Electronics and Telecommunications at Politecnico di Torino, located in Turin, Italy. He started his Ph.D. in Bioengineering and Medical and Surgical Sciences at Politecnico di Torino in 2017. He successfully defended his doctoral thesis titled “Muscle Synergy Assessment during Cyclic and Non-Cyclic Movements: Methodological Issues and Application-oriented Studies” in July 2021. His pioneering work in sEMG acquisition and signal processing has earned him recognition, including the prestigious 2022 Carlo J. DeLuca Award from the International Society of Electrophysiology & Kinesiology (ISEK). Currently, he is focused on researching innovative techniques in neuro-engineering and neural computation.
Research areas:
