About

Jun Chang Yang is a pioneering researcher in the field of electronic skin (e-skin) and flexible sensing technologies, with work spanning wearable electronics, robotics, and prosthetics. His most influential contribution — a comprehensive 2019 review on electronic skin published in *Advanced Materials* — has amassed over 1,600 citations, establishing him as a leading voice in the field. The review synthesized cutting-edge progress across skin-attachable health monitoring devices, robotic tactile systems, and prosthetic interfaces, serving as an essential reference for researchers worldwide. Beyond surveying the field, Yang has made original technical contributions, including the development of a pressure-insensitive strain sensor fabricated through an accessible solution-based process, enabling more accurate tactile discrimination in artificial skin systems (219 citations). His later work introduced a bending sensor exploiting controlled microcracking to achieve simultaneous multi-modal sensing, advancing soft robotics applications. More recently, Yang has expanded his research toward bioinspired thermal management, developing a bidirectional thermo-regulating hydrogel that mimics the body's natural thermal homeostasis. Together, these contributions reflect a research trajectory that consistently bridges biomimicry, materials innovation, and practical sensing applications for next-generation human-machine interfaces.
