An interdisciplinary course on recent advances within rehabilitation robotics which is organized as one-day scientific workshop and one-day interdisciplinary seminar. Ph.D. students receive a diploma (and ECTS).
The event is open to other researchers upon registration (mostafa@hst.aau.dk).
The interdisciplinary seminar is open to everyone upon registration (mostafa@hst.aau.dk).
Participants will hear talks from world-leading researchers, clinicians, and industry professionals. Moreover, Ph.D. students will present their own work through a poster, a pitch and an optional demo. Students will receive feedback on their work from the lecturers and the best pitch will receive a prize.
The course will cover themes within rehabilitation robotics, including both therapeutic and assistive robotics, exoskeletons and robotic interfacing. Further the course will include clinical aspects and user perspectives. The course will also showcase the latest solutions within the rehabilitation robotics industry.
The following speakers with give a more scientific talk on the first day and a broader talk on the second day:
- Professor Dario Farina, Imperial College London, England
- Professor Lorenzo Masia, Heidelberg University, Germany
- Professor Nicola Vitiello, Scuola Superiore Sant'Anna, Italy
- Professor John Paulin Hansen, DTU, Denmark
- Professor Lotte N.S. Andreasen Struijk, Aalborg University, Denmark
Literature/Requirements
Ph.D. students are required to bring a poster (can be from a past conference). They are required to pitch the poster during a 5-minute-long presentation. The posters cannot have received a previous prize.
Students are also encouraged to bring a demo (optional).
Prerequisites
PhD student level
Evaluation
There will be a poster pitch assessment committee based on the lecturers of the course.

Important information concerning PhD courses:
We have over some time experienced problems with no-show for both project and general courses. It has now reached a point where we are forced to take action. Therefore, the Doctoral School has decided to introduce a no-show fee of DKK 3.000 for each course where the student does not show up. Cancellations are accepted no later than 2 weeks before start of the course. Registered illness is of course an acceptable reason for not showing up on those days. Furthermore, all courses open for registration approximately four months before start. This can hopefully also provide new students a chance to register for courses during the year. We look forward to your registrations.
