Research Scope
With the rapid development of the Internet of Things (IoT) and advanced devices capable of monitoring a wide range of biometric parameters, wearable/implantable devices have gained the interest of physicians and researchers due to the potential benefits associated with long-term patient monitoring for healthcare. In recent years, a large number of wearable/implantable sensors suitable for clinical applications have emerged, which monitor daily activities to capture patients’ physiological signals to facilitate clinical evaluation and integrate miniature sensors to support performance. Wang's group draws primarily on electrical engineering, biology/medicine technology, and material science to develop approaches for addressing biomedical problems.
We are seeking highly motivated students (in BS, MS, and PhD programs), postdoctoral researchers, and visiting scholars who are interested in biomedical devices/systems and artificial intelligence, and who are enthusiastic about collaborating with medical doctors and industry companies to join our group! Participating students will receive laboratory training on designing biomedical devices, even without prior electronics experience. If you are interested in our research, please contact Professor Wang by email at wangtw@mx.nthu.edu.tw.
