Industry Collaborator

Exponent

Jennifer Molnar is an EE/CS consultant at Exponent, collaborating with the HRELab to further the design of assistive devices. She completed her PhD in Robotics at Georgia Tech, where she was an NSF Fellow in a joint GT/Emory Medical Robotics Traineeship program. Her graduate work focused on improving the controllability of bio-inspired (but non-anthropomorphic) soft robots, and particularly on research to identify control schemes that would enable their intuitive teleoperation.
