Congratulations to Sihan who after only 1.5 hour viva got the DPhil title. Sihan is the second DPhil graduated from my lab and did an amazing contribution in the field for soft valves and soft matter computing. I am very proud of his big achievement!

My PhD students Estelle Raffy Estelle Raffy and Vijay Chandiramani are organising a regular seminar series on #MorphologicalComputation and beyond - #MorphoTalks . More info: tinyurl.com/2nttk6q9 All talks are online: tinyurl.com/yv736n5g

Congratulations to the one and only first DPhil student of SRL Dr Ollie Shorthose who after 3 hours viva examination in which defended his work got the Doctor of Philosophy title! I am very proud! The legacy continues…

Many thanks to everyone who attended the workshop on soft robotics and embodied AI for food and home applications! 🍅🏠
We hope you enjoyed the time in Lausanne!

First day gone at the 4th UK Manipulation workshop in Bristol! ORI_SRL is in the building! picture highlights from my invited talk and poster presentations of Alessandro Albini on tactile based manipulation for assembly task and Ollie Shorthose on the design of a soft hand

As part of the 4th UK Robotics students have prepared a number of project posters for the robotics community to engage with. Great to see what the future experts in the field are working on! Efi Psomopoulou Nathan Lepora UWE Bristol University of Bristol #UKRobotManipWS

Today SRL is at The 4th UK Robot Manipulation Workshop organized by Bristol Robotics Lab. I am Giving a talk on soft robotics and tactile based manipulation and my students are presenting 2 posters!! See you there! robot-manipulation.uk
