Bruno Miguel Fonseca Ferreira frequenta o Doutoramento em Engenharia Eletrotécnica e de Computadores pela Universidade de Coimbra, no Departamento de Engenharia Electrotécnica e de Computadores. Desde 2019, encontra-se integrado como Investigador no Instituto de Sistemas e Robótica, tendo publicado artigos em conferência, bem como em revistas especializadas. As suas áreas principais de interesse centram-se na análise do movimento humano utilizando Inteligência Artificial e Visão por Computador, nomeadamente durante a prática de exercício físico. Também se interessa pelo desenvolvimento de ferramentas imersivas, normalmente com recurso a Jogos Sérios, para apoiar o processo de reabilitação de pacientes com lesões após AVC ou no sistema vestibular. O Mestre Bruno Ferreira leciona como Assistente Convidado no Departamento de Engenharia Eletrotécnica e de Computadores, desde 2021, algumas unidades curriculares, como por exemplo, Laboratório de Sistemas Digitais, Sistemas de Microprocessadores, e Computação Gráfica e Realidade Aumentada.
