Sabine Hauert is Professor of Swarm Engineering in the Bristol Robotics Laboratory at the University of Bristol[4] where her research investigates swarm robotics.[2] Previously she worked at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) and the École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) in Switzerland.[1]

Education

Hauert was educated at the École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) where she was awarded Bachelor of Science, Master of Science and Doctor of Philosophy degrees.[1] During her study she participated in a student exchange program at Carnegie Mellon University (CMU).[1] Her PhD on aerial swarm robotics was supervised by Dario Floreano and Jean-Christophe Zufferey and awarded in 2010.[3][5]

Career and research

Hauert's research investigates swarm intelligence, robotics, nanomedicine and cancer.[2][6] Her work has appeared in Nature,[7] Science,[8] the European Parliament,[1] the Royal Society[8][9] and featured in mainstream media including the BBC,[10] CNN,[11] The Guardian,[12] The Economist,[13] TEDx,[14] Wired,[15] and New Scientist.[16] Hauert is president and co-founder of robohub.org, a nonprofit organization and online communication platform that brings together experts in robotics research, start-ups, business and education from across the globe.[17]

Hauert served as a member of the working group on machine learning at the Royal Society from 2015 to 2017.[9][18][19]

Awards and honours

Hauert was a member of the team that won first place at the RoboCup US Open in 2005.[1] She was a selectee at the 63rd Lindau Nobel Laureate Meeting in 2013 and was awarded a postdoctoral fellowship at MIT by the Human Frontier Science Program (HFSP) in 2011.[1]
