Research Interests
My interest in global health began with participating in the Hong Kong Polytechnic University's decades-long service projects in Cambodia to provide electricity to locals. At GW, my PhD research focused on developing miniature bioelectronics for cardiac electrotherapy, including the world's first dissolvable pacemaker. Currently at the GEAR Center, I'm combining my interests and experiences to develop medical devices for global health.
