CITAR Department congratulates on the International Day of Women and Girls in Science! (SDG 5, GOAL 5)
International Day of Women and Girls in Science!
CITAR Department congratulates its colleagues and applicants!
We are implementing the Sustainable Development Goals, in particular Goal 5 Goal 5. Gender Equality.
We are involving beautiful, intelligent and creative women in the development of automation and robotics!
Every year on February 11, the world celebrates the International Day of Women and Girls in Science, established by the UN in 2015.
This event is designed to draw attention to the important role of women in scientific research and technology, as well as to overcome gender stereotypes.
Women play an important role in the development of automation and robotics. Here are some outstanding women who have made significant contributions to these fields:
1. Daniela Rus
Director of CSAIL (Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory at MIT, USA)
One of the leading researchers in the field of robotics and artificial intelligence.
Her team develops autonomous robots, soft robotics and robots that can fold like origami.
2. Eileen Treyvus
Industrial automation expert
Works on improving robotic systems in manufacturing.
Her research focuses on the use of IoT (Internet of Things) in smart factories.
3. Ayanna Howard
Robotics and artificial intelligence researcher
Worked with NASA to develop robotic systems for Mars exploration.
Founded a company that creates smart devices for people with disabilities.
4. Rupali Patel
Robotic manipulator specialist
Works on developing robotic arms for complex surgical operations.
Her work helps improve the accuracy and safety of medical procedures.
5. Cynthia Breazeal
Founder of personal robotics
Created Jibo, a social robot that can interact with people.
Researches how robots can help in education and social spheres.
6. Mindy Li
Manufacturing Automation Specialist
Leads research in the field of adaptive robotic systems for factories.
Her developments help companies reduce costs and increase efficiency.
These women prove that robotics and automation are areas where innovation has no gender boundaries. Their discoveries and technologies are changing the world, making it more efficient and accessible for everyone!
