معرفی
Maria Elena Lai is a Research Fellow in Biomedical Engineering at the Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering (DIEE) of the University of Cagliari, Italy, working on the STOPme project focused on Rett syndrome stereotypy recognition through ambient intelligence.
Education:
- B.Sc. in Biomedical Engineering from the University of Cagliari
- M.Sc. student in Bioengineering (Neuroengineering and bio-ICT) at the University of Genoa
Her research integrates biomedical signal processing, wearable systems, and machine learning to analyze motor/respiratory patterns in Rett syndrome, building on prior work with biosignal analysis in autistic children and 3D pediatric thoracic imaging. This demonstrates her commitment to engineering-driven healthcare innovation for neurodevelopmental disorders.
