Building Trust in Human-Robot Collaboration

I am a fifth-year Ph.D. candidate in the Industrial and Operations Engineering Department Department at the University of Michigan and a member of the Interaction and Collaboration Research Lab (ICRL).

My research centers on understanding and modeling human trust dynamics, predicting behavior as a function of trust, and designing robot interaction strategies that foster trust within human-robot teams. This work lies at the intersection of human factors and optimization—the two core pillars of Industrial Engineering.
