Biography
Ricardo Sanz is an Aeronautical Engineer and holds a PhD in Automation, Robotics, and Industrial Informatics from the Universitat Politècnica de València. His predoctoral research focused on the development of control strategies for systems with delays in sensors and/or actuators. He has undertaken training and research stays at Georgia Tech and the University of California San Diego (UCSD). In recent years, he has focused his research activities on the field of biomedical engineering. He is currently an Assistant Professor in the Department of Electronic Engineering at the Universitat de València, which he joined in October 2024, and conducts his research at the Intelligent Data Analysis Laboratory (IDAL).
