About
Gabriella Francesca Amalia Pernice is a leading researcher at the intersection of human factors engineering and neuroergonomics, with a primary focus on optimizing human-robot collaboration in industrial settings. Her work is central to the Industry 5.0 paradigm, which prioritizes human well-being alongside technological advancement. Pernice’s major contributions lie in developing non-invasive, real-time methods to assess cognitive workload—particularly among senior workers—using physiological signals like eye-tracking and cardiac activity. Her highly cited 2023 paper, "Advanced workstations and collaborative robots: exploiting eye-tracking and cardiac activity indices to unveil senior workers’ mental workload in assembly tasks," has garnered 26 citations and is foundational in demonstrating how cobots can be tailored to reduce mental strain. By quantifying the cognitive demands of human-robot interaction, Pernice provides critical insights for designing adaptive, inclusive workstations. Her work not only advances theoretical understanding of cognitive ergonomics but also offers practical frameworks for industry, ensuring that automation enhances rather than hinders human performance. Pernice’s research is pivotal for creating sustainable, age-inclusive manufacturing environments.
