Dkanalous - This week, we chat to Dimitrios Kanoulas, UKRI Future Leaders Fellow and Lecturer in Robotics & Computation. He discusses the expansion of the Robotics department for the new UCL East campus, and we find out that his other passion isn't as robotic, but more of a poetic affair. What is your role and what does it involve?. I am UKRI Future Leaders Fellow and Lecturer in Robotics & Computation at UCL, Computer Science, working mainly on the cognition part of robots that have limbs, such as quadrupeds, humanoids, and manipulators. I am also involved massively in the preparation for the Robotics & AI huge UCL East expansion and investment. I am member of the panel that designed the two new programmes of MEng in Robotics & AI starting in 2023, and MSc in Robotics starting in 2024. We invest a lot of time and effort to hire brilliant new academics and staff in Robotics for UCL East, while I am responsible of the management and acquisition of robots and sensors for the new robotics space at UCL East, that will provide the right environment for researchers and students to learn and develop accordingly.
