报告题目Wearable Sensing and Intervention for Healthcare: from Human Motion Perspective


报告摘要:

Wearable sensing technologies have shown great potential for preventive medicine and health management, improving individuals’ quality of life and reducing medical expenses. In this talk, I will briefly cover some of our research in the areas of wearable biomechanics, and how it can be applied to stroke rehabilitation. Due to the passive sensing nature of wearable technologies, I am also interested in active intervention technologies. In this talk, I will also briefly discuss some of our work in robotics, exoskeleton and rehabilitation robotics in particular.  

报告人简介:

Dr Zhang is an Associate Professor between School of Electronic and Electrical Engineering and School of Mechanical Engineering, University of Leeds. He received his BEng degree in Computer Science and Technology from Tianjin University in 2005, and his Ph.D. degree in Electrical Engineering from the University of Chinese Academy of Sciences in 2010. Upon completion of his Ph.D. degree, he moved to Imperial College London working as a research associate for five and half years before joining University of Leeds. His primary research interests are applying wearable/pervasive sensing technologies into healthcare and wellbeing research, with emphasis on wearable human motion analysis for different patients’ groups. He is also interested in exoskeleton rehab robots and prosthetics control using wearable sensors.
