About

Eleni Agorastou is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of artificial intelligence, assistive technology, and speech-language pathology. Her primary research areas include the development of AI-driven interventions for language disorders, human-robot interaction in therapeutic settings, and serious game design for cognitive-linguistic rehabilitation. Agorastou’s most influential work, “Artificial Techniques for Language Disorders” (2019), has garnered 17 citations and provides a comprehensive review of how artificial intelligence, robotics, and gamified learning can revolutionize the diagnosis and treatment of speech and language deficits. This seminal paper maps the evolution of technology-assisted therapy, highlighting how intelligent systems can personalize learning pathways for individuals with aphasia, developmental language delays, and other communication challenges. Her contributions bridge the gap between computational innovation and clinical practice, offering scalable, engaging solutions for language intervention. Agorastou’s research is particularly notable for its interdisciplinary approach, integrating insights from linguistics, computer science, and education. By demonstrating that robots and AI can serve as patient, adaptive tutors, she has opened new avenues for accessible therapy, especially for children and underserved populations. Her work continues to inspire researchers developing ethical, human-centered technologies for communication disorders.
