About

Yan Guo is a versatile researcher whose work spans the intersection of biomedical engineering, smart materials, and rehabilitation technology. With expertise ranging from wearable sensing systems to advanced biomaterials, Guo has established a compelling interdisciplinary research profile that bridges hardware innovation with therapeutic applications. Among Guo's most recognized contributions is the development of a wireless, fully flexible smart insole incorporating a highly sensitive pressure sensor for gait event detection — a breakthrough with direct implications for clinical diagnostics, exoskeleton control, and rehabilitation robotics. This work, cited 24 times since 2021, addresses longstanding limitations in wearable sensor technology, particularly around flexibility, reliability, and ease of use in real-world settings. Equally notable is Guo's work on injectable, self-healing hydrogels modified with histamine-functionalized hyaluronic acid. Published in 2022 and already cited 22 times, this research advances the frontier of smart biomaterials by engineering dynamic, stimuli-responsive networks with multifunctional properties — including drug delivery capability, antibacterial performance, and tissue engineering potential. Together, these contributions reflect Guo's commitment to developing intelligent, adaptive systems that meaningfully improve human health outcomes across both physical rehabilitation and regenerative medicine.
