Research Interests

Recent research:
Across diverse studies in biomedical engineering and related fields, the researcher investigates practical solutions to health challenges arising from prolonged sitting, pressure distribution, and tissue integrity, while also examining advances in corneal biomechanics, AI-driven diagnostics, and ethical research practice. The work on sensing-mat technology analyzes postural pressure points to prevent pressure ulcers and back discomfort, highlighting the relationship between sitting behavior and health risks. In corneal biomechanics, the researcher reviews computational and AI-enabled methods—biomimetic modeling, deep oculomotor control, neural networks, and genetic algorithms—for improved keratoconus detection, intraocular pressure prediction, and imaging-based assessment, underscoring potential screening indices and prognosis implications. Complementing these technical themes, the ethics and governance study discusses bioethical protocols in engineering research, emphasizing informed consent, risk-benefit assessment, responsible conduct, and adherence to standards for research involving living humans. This integrated profile demonstrates a focus on sensor-enabled health interventions, computational analytics for eye health, and rigorous ethical framing of engineering research with human participants, suggesting impact in preventive care, diagnostic accuracy, and responsible innovation.
