Sabina Maglio received the B.Sc. degree in Biomedical Engineering from University of Pisa, Italy, in 2017, with a thesis titled "Types and properties of inorganic antimicrobial materials". In 2020, she pursued the M.Sc. degree (with Hons.) in Biomedical Engineering from the University of Pisa, Italy, in which she developed and innovative high fidelity simulator to train pneumothorax relieve in neonates. She completed the Ph.D. in BioRobotics (with Hons.) at the Scuola Superiore Sant’Anna in 2024 with a thesis on high-fidelity simulation and training in neonatal emergency procedures and first care. She has also been a research affiliate at the Institute for Medical Engineering and Science at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, USA. She is currently post-doc at the Surgical Robotics and Allied Technologies Lab at the BioRobotics Institute. Her research interests include high-fidelity simulation for medical training and physiological research applied to the neonatology and gynecology fields in high and low income countries. She also develop medical devices for the same research fields and as result of this activity she is coauthor of multiple journal papers and a patent.
