Education
B.Eng Mechanical Engineering, Bahia Federal University, Brazil 2008
M.S. Information Science, Hokkaido University, Japan 2011
Ph.D. Information Science, Osaka University, Japan 2014
Postdoc Engineering, University of Cambridge 2017
I deeply enjoy teaching courses where students combine theoretical components to a practical application. I have been a faculty at ShanghaiTech University, China, for five years, where I created syllabi and taught two courses on Robotics for over four years.
While in China I organized outreach activities, teaching Scratch programming to children from low-income neighborhoods in Shanghai. Here in WPI my MQPs usually combine machine learning algorithms with robots and manipulators, or cool/innovative inventions that my students may have!
I focus on the design of robots and soft robots, and on the application of learning algorithms to efficiently search control parameters for soft manipulators and legged/whegged robots.
