About

Jia-Han Zhang is a leading researcher in bioinspired electronics, focusing on synaptic devices, electronic skin, and neuromorphic sensory systems. Their work bridges materials science and neuroscience to create flexible, energy-efficient technologies that mimic biological perception. Zhang’s 2022 paper on advanced synaptic devices (60 citations) explores how artificial synapses can replicate the human nervous system’s plasticity and fault tolerance, enabling biomimetic sensory neural networks. Their 2022 review on electronic skin (51 citations) addresses key challenges in developing wearable systems that emulate biological skin’s functions and mechanical properties for healthcare and robotics. In 2023, Zhang introduced a flexible piezocapacitive pressure sensor with microsphere-array electrodes (22 citations), enhancing sensitivity through innovative microstructures for applications in medical devices and human–machine interfaces. Most recently, their 2025 work on a self-powered multisensory neuromorphic device (6 citations) integrates auditory and rotational perception inspired by the inner ear’s labyrinth, showcasing a novel approach to energy-autonomous sensing. With over 139 citations across these works, Zhang’s contributions are advancing the frontier of intelligent, skin-like electronics and neuromorphic computing, positioning them as a key innovator in next-generation sensory technologies.
