About

Federico Morosato is a researcher at the forefront of sensory-motor neuroprosthetics, with a focus on restoring naturalistic sensory feedback for upper limb amputees. His work centers on developing innovative interfaces that allow prosthetic users to perceive complex tactile sensations, such as thermal feedback and wetness perception, which are critical for intuitive interaction with the environment. In his highly cited 2024 paper, "A sensory-motor hand prosthesis with integrated thermal feedback," Morosato demonstrates a pioneering approach to embedding thermal sensing into prosthetic hands, enabling users to distinguish between hot and cold surfaces—a breakthrough that has already garnered 10 citations. His related work, "Remapping Wetness Perception in Upper Limb Amputees," published in 2024, introduces a wearable thermal device that remaps wetness perception onto residual limbs, offering amputees a novel way to experience moisture. This research, with 3 citations, highlights his ability to translate fundamental sensory neuroscience into practical prosthetic solutions. Morosato’s contributions are reshaping the field of bionics, moving beyond basic motor control toward a richer, more embodied user experience, and his work is increasingly recognized for its potential to improve quality of life for individuals with limb loss.
