Research Research interests My research focuses on the biomechanics of human movement and on the definition of methods, modelling
techniques and protocols that improved the insight into human motor function and allow for the clinical
assessment of individual’s motor capacity and performance. Inside the field of movement analysis, my
research can be divided into three main streams of interests that are linked with each other: a) Methods for
high resolution joint kinematics estimation; b) Wearable sensors for locomotor ability assessment; c)
Innovative approaches for neuro-muscular rehabilitation.
