Biography
Francisco Rebelo is an Associate Professor at the School of Architecture. He holds a PhD in Ergonomics – Human-Centered Design from Universiade de Lisboa, aggregated in Ergonomic Design at the same University.
His teaching and research focus on understanding and measuring human performance and experiences resulting from using or anticipating a product, service, or system. At the applied level, his goal is to integrate ergonomics, neuroscience, and technological tools to design transformative human experiences that improve people’s lives’ performance, fun, safety, and health.
