Giuseppe Cavallo was born in Acquaviva delle Fonti (BA), Italy, in1980. He received his Laurea di primo livello (Bachelor Degree) in Biomedical Engineering in 2002 from Università Campus Bio-Medico di Roma with the thesis: "Electromagnetic compatibility in hospital environment: electromagnetic shields in grid shape". Then he got the Laurea Specizlistica (Master Degree) in Biomedical Engineering in 2004 from Università Campus Bio-Medico di Roma with the thesis: "Design and developement of a force platform for biomechanical measures of locomotion in mice models of behavioural disorders". In 2008 he earned the PhD in Bioengineering at School of Engineering of Università Campus Bio-Medico di Roma with the thesis: “Mechatronic technologies for behavioural analysis”. In 2007 he spent 3 months at Takanishi Lab, in Waseda University, Tokyo, Japan as visiting student. He is currently a research fellow at Laboratory of Biomedical Robotics and Biomicrosystems. His research activity concerns the design and the development of mechatronic tools for Behavioural Phenotyping of neuro-developmental disorders both in animal and human models. He is involved in the development and the evaluation of mechatronic/robotic platforms for rehabilitation, in particular in post-stroke patients. His interest is also in technological transfer, in particular in the study and the evaluation of models for industrial exploitation of results obtained by scientific research.
