About
Bahareh Taghizadeh-Sarshouri is a biomedical engineer whose research lies at the intersection of neural interfaces, myoelectric control, and assistive technology. Her most impactful work, "Long-term decoding of movement force and direction with a wireless myoelectric implant" (2015, 41 citations), addresses a critical bottleneck in prosthetic hand control: the limited information content and reliability of surface electromyography (sEMG) signals. By demonstrating that an implanted wireless myoelectric sensor can decode both movement force and direction over extended periods, she provided a pathway toward more intuitive, multi-degree-of-freedom prostheses. This work is notable for tackling cross-talk and signal degradation issues that have long constrained sEMG-based systems. Her contributions have advanced the field of implantable myoelectric interfaces, offering a more robust alternative to surface recordings for long-term clinical use. With a citation record that underscores the relevance of her findings to both neural engineering and rehabilitation robotics, Taghizadeh-Sarshouri’s research continues to inform the design of next-generation prosthetic limbs that restore natural, dexterous movement.
