Anna K. Kuhlen (Professor, RWTH Aachen University) is an external collaborator working on SCIoI Project 09, “Multimodal Interaction and Communication”. Her research focuses on human-human and human-robot social interaction and multimodal communication. She received a Ph.D. degree in Experimental Psychology from the Stony Brook University (New York, USA) and has held postdoctoral positions at the Department of Psychology of the Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin and at the Bernstein Center for Computational Neuroscience in Berlin.
