The Learning Lab
Pui Tze Sian, Ph.D.
Senior Lecturer, Biomedical Engineering, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore
As a Bioengineering instructor, I've had the honor of leading educational projects focused on medical device innovation. These projects mainly involve creating interfaces and electronic control systems. I've also started a mentorship program to help undergraduate students explore research and entrepreneurship opportunities.
I'm studying medical diagnostic and rehabilitation technologies, and my main focus right now is creating a high-tech digital platform for remote physical therapy. This platform uses computer vision technology powered by artificial intelligence to track patients' exercises, ensure they stick to their routines, and measure joint movement accurately.
