Yi-Xing LIU

Postdoctoral Researcher of Early Detection of Health Risks and Prevention


 

Dr Yi-Xing Liu received her PhD in December 2021 from KTH Sweden. Her doctoral thesis is entitled ‘Facilitating Exoskeletons in Daily Uses: Simulations and Predictions in Design and Control’. Her research interests include wearable assistive device developments, wearable sensors, biomechanics, muscle synergies, and algorithm developments. She also worked as a co-supervisor of a doctoral project where they developed soft exoskeletons for people with drop-foot and Human-in-the-loop control algorithms.

Currently, she is a postdoctoral researcher at Singapore-ETH Centre in the Module of Early Detection of Health Risks and Prevention where she aims to understand the personalized features and develop predictive models for falling risk estimation. Her research will also be collaborated with the team in Duke-NUS working on falling risk interventions.
