About
Dr. Rongrong Bao is a leading researcher in the field of flexible and wearable electronics, with a primary focus on electronic skin (e-skin), tactile sensors, and self-powered systems. Her most impactful contribution is the development of a skin-inspired, highly stretchable and conformable matrix network for multifunctional sensing, which has garnered over 1,390 citations and represents a landmark advancement in mimicking the human somatosensory system. Dr. Bao has also pioneered the integration of piezo-phototronic effects with flexible LED arrays for high-resolution pressure mapping, and she has made significant strides in triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG) technology for self-powered movement monitoring and energy harvesting. Her work on fully fibrous, large-area TENGs using solution blow spinning demonstrates a scalable approach to wearable energy solutions. With a total of over 2,000 citations across her most-cited works, Dr. Bao’s research is foundational to next-generation robotics, human-machine interfaces, and intelligent systems. Her recent development of an integrated intelligent tactile system for humanoid robots further underscores her role in advancing practical, high-resolution tactile sensing for real-world applications.
