Bio.

Since Sept. 2017, Dr. Wang is an Associate Professor at ESIEE Paris. She obtained the Ph.D degree from Ecole Centrale de Nantes (LS2N lab, ex-IRCCYN), France in December 2011. Her Ph.D thesis is entitled "Walking control of biped humanoid robot" under the supervision of Prof. Christine Chevallereau (DR CNRS). She participated in the ANR R2A2 project for the walking control and stability analysis of HYDROïD robots. From Sept. to Dec. 2011, she worked as a CNRS research engineer for the same projet at IRCCYN. From 2013 to 2015, she was an ERCIM postdoctoral fellow at the Hephaistos team of INRIA Sophia Antipolis , and then worked on the creation of a startup about assistance robots until 2016. She did the research on Gait Analysis of Eld People with Walking Aid under the supervision of Prof. Jean-Piere Merlet (DR INRIA, IEEE Fellow). From 2016 to 2017, she was a lecture (ATER) at the University of Versailles and worked on Wheelchair Skills Assessment and Training in the LISV lab.
