Francisco Rebelo
Biography
Francisco Rebelo is Associate Professor at School of Architecture, holds a PhD in Ergonomics – Human-Centered Design from Universiade de Lisboa, aggregated in Ergonomic Design in the same University.
His teaching and research focus on understanding and measuring human performance and experiences resulting from the use, or anticipated use, of 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.
