[Feb 27th, 2023] Our colleague Sandra Malpica has succesfully defended her thesis! She has received a Sobresaliente Cum Laude, the maximum grade in our University. Supervised by Belen Masia and Diego Gutierrez, Sandra has been part of the group for almost nine years, and she has also developed here her BSc and MSc theses. Her thesis, coined Visual and multimodal perception in immersive environments , has been focused on understanding human perception in multimodal environments, both from a visual and a multimodal perspective (i.e., integrating different modalities such as vision, audio, or proprioception). She has done an excellent job in research, teaching, and dissemination. Congrats! In the pictures below you can see Sandra defending the thesis to the jury (Mar Gonzalez-Franco, Nuria Pelechano, and Ana Serrano). After the tough, yet fun defense, they all got to celebrate it having lunch!
