Serena Cerfoglio 

PhD student 
Electronics, Information and Bioengineering Department
Politecnico di Milano

Serena Cerfoglio graduated with honors in Biomedical Engineering from the Politecnico di Milano in July 2021, with a thesis focused on the development of a machine learning model for estimating kinetic variables from data collected through inertial sensors, with applications in sports performance monitoring.
She is currently a PhD student at the Department of Electronics, Information, and Bioengineering at the Polytechnic University of Milan. She conducts her research at the “Luigi Divieti” Posture and Movement Analysis Laboratory and at the Biomechanics and Rehabilitation Research Laboratory of the I.R.C.C.S. Istituto Auxologico Italiano in Piancavallo (VB), within a multidisciplinary context that combines engineering and rehabilitative medicine.
Her research primarily focuses on movement analysis in individuals with motor and neurological deficits, with particular attention to the use of innovative technologies such as inertial sensors and RGB-Depth technologies for functional assessment and tele-rehabilitation. In parallel, she is involved in studies aimed at analyzing the effects of total body cryotherapy on motor and functional parameters, in collaboration with the scientific team at Auxologico.
In addition to her academic work, she practices Olympic weightlifting and CrossFit at a semi-competitive level, where she combines practical experience with scientific training.
