About
Maria De Marsico is a leading researcher whose work spans the critical intersection of human-computer interaction (HCI) and medical technology. Her primary research areas include accessible interface design, human-robot interaction, and the development of novel fiducial markers for precision radiation oncology. A major contribution is her pioneering work on natural, embodied interfaces for drone control, where she empirically demonstrated that such systems can significantly outperform traditional interfaces, especially for users with low technological experience or special needs. This research, published in 2022, has already garnered 11 citations for its impact on inclusive HMI design. In the medical domain, De Marsico has made substantial contributions to stereotactic radiosurgery for liver cancer. Her pilot study (2016, 9 citations) and comparative analysis (2017, 8 citations) on ultrasound-guided fiducial marker placement are highly cited for their practical guidance on optimizing tracking accuracy and procedural safety. By systematically evaluating different marker types and needle gauges, her work directly improves the efficacy of CyberKnife treatments. De Marsico’s unique ability to bridge engineering and clinical practice makes her a notable figure, driving innovation that enhances both everyday technology and life-saving medical procedures.
