- Supervisors: Dr Alison Jones, Professor Todd Stewart, Dr Aiqin Liu, Dr Aiqin Liu
Profile
I completed the MEng program in Medical Engineering at the University of Leeds from 2019 to 2023. Currently, I am working on a PhD project which focused on studying the biomechanics of the tibiofemoral joints across various activities using both marker-based motion capture system and musculoskeletal model.
Research interests
Biomechanics of the tibiofemoral joints:
- Flexion/extension, abduction/adduction, internal/external rotations, anterior-posterial translation, medial-lateral translations,and superior-inferior translations, using OpenSim.
- Motion track of the contact points between femoral condyles and tibial plateaus using Python + VTK.
Qualifications
- Medical Engineering MEng (Leeds).
Research groups and institutes
- Institute of Medical and Biological Engineering
