About

Senhao Zhang is pioneering the next generation of wearable bioelectronics, with a focus on stretchable, breathable, and wireless systems for healthcare and human-machine interaction. His major contributions center on developing epidermal electrodes and sensors that overcome the mechanical mismatch between rigid electronics and soft, dynamic human skin. Notably, his 2024 work on a conformal, wireless surface electromyography (sEMG) sensor system—cited 17 times—enables stable, long-term hand gesture recognition and rehabilitation for stroke patients, directly addressing the limitations of conventional rigid Ag/AgCl electrodes. In 2025, Zhang advanced this field by introducing a laser-induced graphene-assisted method for patterning and transferring silver nanowires, creating ultra-conformal, breathable epidermal electrodes for long-term electrophysiological monitoring (also 17 citations). He has also tackled a fundamental challenge in soft electronics with his theoretical and experimental work on strain-invariant stretchable antennas, achieving consistent resonant frequency under deformation. Beyond fundamental materials, Zhang contributed to the CYBATHLON 2024 competition, developing strategies for upper-limb prosthetics that emphasize user-centered design and standardized evaluation. With a rapidly growing citation impact, his research is shaping the future of wearable health monitoring and assistive technology.
