Bio
Sofia Scataglini is an Biomedical Engineer and a Visiting Professor at Antwerp University in Digital Human Modelling (DHM) and wearable for ergonomics, health and wealth. Sofia Scataglini is recognized with the title of European Ergonomist (Eur.Erg.), CREE.
Sofia Scataglini is a member of the Scientific Committee of the International Ergonomics Association (IEA) and chair of the IEA Technical Committee on Digital Human Modeling and Simulation.
Sofia is the founder of the Digital Human Modeling by Women group (DHMW), which is dedicated to promoting women in STEAM around the world. Sofia organizes congresses related to applied human factor, ergonomics, and digital human modelling (DHM).
She is also an active editor and writer and reviewer of book and journals, scientific grant focusing on sensors, medicine, health and care, modelling and simulation, standardization, ergonomics, biomechanics and design.
Sofia Scataglini is involved in different TC groups for standardization such as National (NBN), European (CENELEC) and International levels (ISO and IEC) for Ergonomics, Wearable, Smart textiles, PPE and clothing.
Her research activities focus on research and design of products, systems, environments, and services for the health, care, and well-being of people using Co-Design and User-Centered Design methods combined with Ergonomics.

DHMW
Digital Human Modelling By Women (DHMW) is an international group dedicated to promoting women scientists, and inspiring girls around the world. DHMW wants to empowering women to exchange ideas, results, and visions in STEAM.
DHMW in HF would provide an international forum for women who are passionate about gender equity in the field of human factors to explore the barriers and issues on underrepresentation, and models for increasing the pipeline. Our major goal is to build a community of Women in Digital Human Modelling that will be enable the participants to be aware of and to be engaged in improving the environment for women in human factors careers.
