Mennatallah Ghoniem at the 5th CORA Conference on Robots and Automation

Our research associate Mennatallah Ghoniem took part in the 5th CORA – Conference on Robots and Automation, held in Kiel in September 2026. The conference brought together international researchers and experts to discuss current research and developments in robotics and automation.

Mennatallah Ghoniem presented her research “Information Interventions and Humanoid Robot Adoption: Evidence from a Randomized Field Experiment.” She examined the role of different types of information in influencing public perceptions and the adoption of humanoid robots.

At the conference, she also discussed current developments in service robotics, including the adoption and regulation of humanoid robots, with researchers and experts from the International Federation of Robotics (IFR). These exchanges provided valuable feedback and new perspectives for ongoing research at the Chair of Economic Policy.
