Sabine Thürauf, Dr. rer. nat.

Curriculum Vitae

Sabine Thürauf received her bachelor's degree in computer science from Technische Universität München in 2012 and her master's degree in 2014. Afterwards, she was a PhD student at the Chair of Robotics and Embedded Systems and was working at the Cyber-Physical Systems group in the project RoboterRöntgen at fortiss. Her PhD project was about absolute accurate robot calibration of a robotic C-arm system based on X-ray observations. Currently, she is a postdoctoral fellow in the Assistive Intelligent Robotics Lab at the Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg.
