Personal profile
ShortBio
Dr. Matija Štrbac (male) received B.Sc. and M.Sc. degrees from the University of Belgrade, School of Electrical Engineering in 2010 and 2011, respectively. In 2011, he enrolled in Ph.D. studies at the same faculty with the focus on the development of the computer vision system that would allow automatic control of electrical stimulation. Matija successfully defended his thesis mentored by prof. Dejan Popović in Oct 2017. From 2012 until 2015, Matija worked on the project financed by the Ministry of Education, Science and Technological Development of the Republic of Serbia as a Research Assistant at the School of Electrical Engineering. From 2013, he started working for Tecnalia Serbia Ltd. as the lead researcher in the projects related to FES assisted rehabilitation of upper extremity and development of electrotactile feedback interface for myoelectric hand prostheses. From 2016 Matija took the role of the Director of Tecnalia Serbia Ltd. He is a WP leader in several H2020 projects.
