Hongxin Liao

Profile

PhD candidate (University of Leeds) - Soft Robotics

 

Research interests

As a key member of a multidisciplinary research team, I am leading the development of a noval cell stretching device that aims to revolutionize the field of mechanobiology. This innovative device addresses the limitations of existing cell stretching technologies by offering novel strain profile control, scalability, and mass producibility. My key skills are soft robotics, Computer-Aided Design (CAD), Finite Element Analysis (FEA), Control system (Arduino, MATLAB), Cell Culture and analysis.
