Maximilian Stölzle

About

Maximilian Stölzle is a Postdoctoral Associate in the Distributed Robotics Lab at MIT CSAIL, led by Prof. Daniela Rus. His research lies at the intersection of (soft) robotics, control, and machine learning, with a focus on building safe yet precise (soft) robots by integrating physical structure, stability guarantees, and model-based control into learned representations and motion policies. He received his Ph.D. in Cognitive Robotics from Delft University of Technology in 2025, graduating cum laude, and previously earned his M.Sc. and B.Sc. in Mechanical Engineering from ETH Zürich.
