Recent research:
The author’s work integrates sensor technology, corneal biomechanics, and bioethics to advance healthcare through measurement-driven insights and responsible innovation. The first study examines sensing-mat technology to prevent pressure injuries and discomfort from prolonged sitting, highlighting posture-dependent pressure distribution and the identification of critical pressure points to inform ergonomic interventions. The second review synthesizes advances in corneal biomechanics, including biomimetic modeling, AI-driven diagnostics, ultrasound elasticity imaging, and neural network approaches for intraocular pressure estimation, underscoring how biomechanical analysis can improve keratoconus detection and prognosis in relation to external mechanical stress. The third piece discusses bioethical protocols in engineering research, detailing informed consent, risk assessment, population considerations, and standards for ethical, human-centered studies in electronic and biomedical contexts. Together, these works emphasize an interdisciplinary methodology that combines sensing, modeling, and ethical guidelines to enhance patient care, risk mitigation, and responsible innovation in biomedical engineering.
