Alessio Antonini

Alessio Antonini

Research Fellow

knowledge-media-institute

Research interests

My research focuses on intelligent media across Digital Health and Digital Humanities, combining conceptual modelling and philosophy of technology with practical applications. My current efforts in bridging reading and digital health are at the core of this approach, reinventing solutions that could exploit the computational power of smartphones while removing the need for costly medical devices and smart sensors. Similarly, my work on smart cities addresses questions about the future of large-scale deployment of robotics, intelligent vision technologies and mobile AI.

Teaching interests

My teaching focuses on research design digital scholarship for PhD students.

Impact and engagement

My research led to extensive collaboration with local communities, healthcare providers across Europe, and Innovation SMEs. I am part of the MK:Smart programme and, in this capacity, I curate relationships with companies and local authorities in Milton Keynes.
