About
Morteza Amjadi is a leading researcher in flexible and soft electronics, with particular expertise in stretchable strain sensors, soft actuators, and wearable devices. His work sits at the intersection of materials science, mechanical engineering, and biomedical applications, addressing critical challenges in human motion detection, personalized healthcare, human-machine interfaces, and soft robotics. Amjadi's most influential contribution is his 2016 comprehensive review on stretchable, skin-mountable, and wearable strain sensors, which has accumulated over 3,000 citations and serves as a foundational reference in the field. His research has directly tackled one of the discipline's central challenges — simultaneously achieving high sensitivity and high stretchability in strain sensors — exemplified by his pioneering parallel microcracks-based sensor design. Beyond sensing, he has made significant strides in soft actuation, developing high-performance paper actuators and innovative self-sensing actuators incorporating graphite-carbon nanotube hybrid films, enabling real-time sensory feedback in soft robotic systems. With a body of work spanning fundamental materials development to applied system design, and accumulating well over 4,300 citations across key publications, Amjadi has established himself as a highly impactful figure shaping the rapidly evolving landscape of soft machines and next-generation wearable technologies.
