Summary
Hadi Sadati is an Assistant Professor in Robotics and Mechatronics and Director of the ACEi Group at Queen Mary University of London, specializing in bioinspired soft robotics, embodied intelligence, and continuum robot dynamics. With a PhD in Soft Robotics from King’s College London and a decade of research experience across leading labs (EPFL, ETH, Bristol, Imperial, Clemson), he combines theoretical reduced-order modelling with hands-on mechatronics and open-source implementation (notably TMTDyn). Hadi has driven translational projects in medical robotics—such as autonomous robotic thrombectomy—and industrial inspection, delivering impact through Innovate UK collaborations and multi-institution grants. He is recognized for shaping a community around ROM and software for soft robotics by organizing workshops and lecturing widely, bridging academic rigor with end-user driven design. An often-overlooked strength is his track record of moving complex continuum models into practical control and consultancy roles for industry partners.
