About

Shideh Kabiri Ameri is a pioneering researcher in the field of wearable bioelectronics, with a primary focus on graphene-based sensors for human-machine interfaces and healthcare monitoring. Her most significant contribution lies in the development of "graphene electronic tattoos"—ultrathin, imperceptible sensors that can be comfortably worn on the skin for extended periods. Her landmark 2018 paper on an imperceptible electrooculography (EOG) graphene sensor system for human-robot interfaces (155 citations) revolutionized how we capture eye movements, replacing bulky, stiff electrodes with flexible, skin-conformal devices. This work enables seamless control of robots and assistive technologies through subtle eye gestures. Building on this, her 2021 paper on the fabrication and characterization of graphene electronic tattoos (116 citations) further established the versatility of these devices for continuous physiological monitoring. Dr. Ameri's innovations bridge the gap between rigid electronics and soft biological tissues, offering unprecedented comfort and signal quality. Her research has profound implications for prosthetics, virtual reality, and non-invasive medical diagnostics, positioning her as a leading figure in the next generation of wearable technology.
