About

Carl Bettosi is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of healthcare robotics and human-robot interaction, with a primary focus on socially assistive robots (SARs) and their deployment in high-stakes environments. His work addresses critical challenges in patient care and robot autonomy, particularly through the development of a robot-administered ICU confusion assessment integrated with brain-computer interface control—a groundbreaking approach that enables delirium evaluation for patients with limited physical abilities. Bettosi’s systematic modeling of structured behavior in social robots advances the translation of human-human interaction into robust human-robot protocols, while his exploration of transparency, motivations, and intentions in SAR decision-making lays essential groundwork for autonomous systems that earn human trust. Though his most-cited papers are recent (2023–2024), their cumulative impact is already evident across clinical robotics and ethical AI design. Bettosi’s contributions are particularly notable for bridging technical innovation with patient-centered care, positioning him as a rising voice in the responsible deployment of assistive technologies.
