Quan Zhou

Professor
Department of Electrical Engineering and Automation

Quan Zhou received the M.Sc. degree in Control Engineering and the Dr.Tech. degree in Automation Technology, both from Tampere University of Technology, Tampere, Finland. He is currently a Professor leading the Robotic Instruments Group in the Department of Electrical Engineering and Automation, School of Electrical Engineering, at Aalto University, Finland. His research focuses on miniaturized robotics, with particular emphasis on robotic manipulation of small-scale objects using diverse physical interaction methods, including contact, acoustic and magnetic fields, interfacial forces, and fluidic flows. This interdisciplinary research integrates physics, mechatronics, automation, and machine learning to address challenges in dexterous and noncontact manipulation. The work spans fundamental methodologies and practical applications in biomedicine, materials science, and industrial technologies.

Prof. Zhou is the Director of the Master鈥檚 Programme in Automation and Electrical Engineering (AEE) at Aalto University and serves as the local coordinator of the EIT Digital Master's Programme in Autonomous Systems. He is also the Coordinator of the within the European Robotics Association (). He led the EU FP7 project FAB2ASM, served as General Chair of the International Conference on Manipulation, Automation and Robotics at Small Scales (MARSS) 2019, and chaired the IEEE Finland Joint Chapter of the Control Systems Society, Robotics and Automation Society, and Systems, Man, and Cybernetics Society. Prof. Zhou was also awarded the 2018 Anton Paar Research Award for Instrumental Analytics and Characterization.
