Bio

Masaki Murooka received the BE, MS, and PhD degree in information science and technology from The University of Tokyo, Japan, in 2013, 2015, and 2018, respectively. He was a project assistant professor in the Department of Mechano-Informatics at The University of Tokyo from 2018 to 2020. He joined the CNRS-AIST Joint Robotics Laboratory in the National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST) in 2020 as a researcher. His research interest includes the motion planning and control of humanoid robots.

The publication list may not be complete, especially for publications prior to 2017. We are working on updating it.
