Dr. Babar Jamil did his Ph.D. in electrical and electronic engineering from Hanyang University, South Korea. His Ph.D. thesis focused on the development of a hybrid robotic manipulator that combines the soft actuation with the conventional rigid point motion, with embedded sensor design for accurate motion control. After completing his Ph.D. he moved to the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the Sungkyunkwan University, South Korea, where he worked as Postdoctoral Researcher and later became a Research Professor.

Dr. Babar Jamil has since joined the School of Physics, Engineering and Technology at the University of York as a lecturer in robotics and control. His current research is centred around novel robotic systems for safe human-robot collaboration and human-robot interfaces. Additionally, He will be involved in designing innovative control algorithms for these robotic systems to enable safe interaction with the environment. His research interests also encompass smart structures through sensor design and integration and applied machine learning.
