Have you ever asked yourself what robots can learn from us? Professor Lee is a robot researcher trying to find answers to this question and wants to make us better teachers in this field. As a mother of a two year old boy she's able to observe the process of his learning at the same time as the progress in her research. That's why it makes him an important source for her inspiration in robotics.
