Research Interests

By 2050, the population of people over the age of 65 will double, reaching 1.2 billion in a huge global age demographics shift. The acquisition and use of information, obtained via real-time and wearable technologies, will greatly enhance the quality and efficiency of medical care.

Multifunctional skin-interfaced electronics is one of the most anticipated medical Internet of Things (IoT) technologies that enables non-invasive collection of high-quality data related to biological activity. This is realized thanks to their conformal coverage of our body, e.g., skin, eyes, organs, and more. Building on these data and recent advances in deep learning, artificial intelligence-based bioimaging, diagnosis, and therapy will be performed with higher accuracy and speed than ever before.

To address the challenge of aging and healthcare, our group aims to advance knowledge and technology through the lens of material innovation, advanced spectroscopy, and engineering of soft bio-electronics.
