Research Areas

Neuroscience 

    1. Brain Cancer & Stroke Imaging and Monitoring
        • To improve cancer & stroke diagnosis and treatment monitoring with non-radioactive novel magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
    2. Psychiatric Disorders
        • To identify biomarkers of schizophrenia. determine cognitive performance of schizophrenia patients and compare schizophrenia and drug addiction using animal model
    3. Neural Signal Processing
        • To extract information from neural signals to understand how the brain represents and transmits information, and use this  information for brain connectivity analysis for understanding behaviors and psychological disorders, developing neurofeedback systems for well being and BCI applications.

Biomechanics

    1. Rehabilitation
        • Application of engineering and physics principles to improve the quality of life of rehabilitating patients with physical disabilities
    2. Sport Activities
        • Quantitative based studies on sport activities to improve athletic performance and prevent injury.
    3. Gait Analysis
        • Study on the differences in limb-movement patterns, kinetic and kinematic parameters in the contact with the ground.

4th Industrial Revolution (IR) in Healthcare

    1. AI in Medical Signal & Image Analysis
        • Use AI to reduce the labor intensive manual labelling, segmentation and classification of medical images and electrophysiological signals.
    2. Internet of Things (IoT)
        • Application of IoT system in healthcare monitoring to track and monitor patients/elderly’s vital signs.
    3. Robotics
        • Application of service robots to increase the efficiency of nurses in hospital and homecare environment
    4. Human Machine Interface
        • Application of human machine interface in assistive and rehab devices
