About
Yiqi Sun is a rising leader in the emerging field of neuromorphic engineering, with a focused research agenda centered on developing bio-inspired electronic systems that emulate the human nervous system. Her primary contributions lie in the design and fabrication of advanced synaptic devices and artificial afferent nerves, which are foundational components for next-generation biomimetic sensory systems. Sun’s most impactful work, "Advanced synaptic devices and their applications in biomimetic sensory neural system" (2022, 60 citations), provides a comprehensive framework for replicating the brain’s plastic, data-parallel, and energy-efficient information processing in hardware. Building on this, her 2023 study on an "Artificial Spiking Afferent Nerve Based on Synaptic Transistor for Thermal Perception" (6 citations) demonstrates a practical application, successfully mimicking the biological functions of cutaneous thermal perception and signal processing. This work represents a significant step toward creating intelligent prosthetics and human-machine interfaces that can sense and interpret environmental stimuli with unprecedented accuracy. Sun’s research is not only advancing fundamental understanding of neuromorphic computing but also paving the way for highly efficient, fault-tolerant electronic systems that learn and adapt like biological organisms.
