Daniel Ferris is the Robert W. Adenbaum Professor of Engineering Innovation at the University of Florida. His research focuses on human-machine interactions, both mechanical and electrical. Current projects include mobile brain imaging, virtual reality training, robotic lower limb exoskeletons, and bionic lower limb prostheses. He completed his Ph.D. at UC Berkeley, M.S. at the University of Miami, and B.S. at the University of Central Florida. After completing postdoctoral fellowships at the UCLA Department of Neurology and the University of Washington Department of Electrical Engineering, he joined the faculty at the University of Michigan for 16 years. In 2017, Dr. Ferris moved to the J. Crayton Pruitt Family Department of Biomedical Engineering at the University of Florida. He is a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), the American Society of Biomechanics (ASB), the American Institute for Medical and Biological Engineering (AIMBE), and the National Academy of Kinesiology (NAK).
