About

Zhe Sun is a multidisciplinary researcher whose work spans flexible electronics, biomaterials, neural simulation, and rehabilitation robotics. Sun has made notable contributions to the development of advanced hydrogel-based electronic skin sensors, designing materials that simultaneously achieve stretchability, strong adhesion, electrical conductivity, and biocompatibility — properties that closely mimic human skin. His most cited work (27 citations) introduced a double-network hydrogel e-skin sensor that represents a significant step forward in wearable health monitoring technology. Complementing this, his research on flexible hydrogel strain sensors (11 citations) has advanced human motion detection and human-machine interaction applications. Beyond materials science, Sun has ventured into computational neuroscience, contributing to embodied brain simulation research that models cortico-basal ganglia-cerebellar-thalamic circuits alongside musculoskeletal systems using supercomputing infrastructure, including the Fugaku supercomputer. He has also applied intelligent control theory to rehabilitation engineering, proposing adaptive fractional-order sliding mode control strategies for lower-limb exoskeletons to assist hemiplegic patients with precise gait tracking. Across these diverse fields, Sun's research consistently bridges biological inspiration with engineering innovation, positioning him as an emerging voice in biomedical and neurorobotic systems.
