About

My research focuses on developing wearable technologies for human-robot interaction and collaboration. This work is driven by the goal of realizing robots' potential in improving people's ability to move, rehabilitate, and thrive. Toward achieving this goal, my research group at Rice University studies robotic exoskeletons, serious games, wearable sensing, and artificial intelligence, among other topics. If you are interested in joining the lab, please visit the lab page to learn about open positions.
