| Meet the University of Wisconsin-Madison’s Hongrui Jiang Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering |
 |
Research area Research interests include micro/nano sensors and actuators; biological MEMS (BioMEMS) and optical MEMS (or Micro Opto Electro Mechanical Systems – MOEMS); microfluidics; lab on chips; smart materials and micro- and nanostructures; stimuli-responsive polymers, nano-scale surface engineering; and solar energy harvesting and storage.
What excites you about your work?
“I am always interested in developing creative engineering tools to solve medical problems. Every step in the development cycle brings excitement and challenge, from learning from the medical collaborators and the community about technological needs to actually working on a potential solution.”
What do you hope to achieve?
“We are currently working on a laparoscopic imaging system and wearable devices for older adults. We hope our work will shift the paradigm, both for visualization during laparoscopic surgery, and for the detection and progression monitoring of diseases related to aging.”
Professor Jiang is a dedicated researcher and inventor. We are excited to partner with industry to commercialize their technologies.
