About

Zhaoqian Xie is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of flexible electronics, human-machine interfaces, and biointegrated systems. His work focuses on developing advanced electronic skins, epidermal electronics, and soft robotics that seamlessly bridge the gap between the human body and intelligent machines. Among his most celebrated contributions is his development of large-area, MRI-compatible epidermal electronic interfaces for prosthetic control and cognitive monitoring, which has garnered nearly 400 citations, establishing him as a leading voice in wearable neurotechnology. His highly cited work on electronic skin as wireless human-machine interfaces for robotic virtual reality—with over 280 citations—demonstrates his ability to translate cutting-edge materials science into real-world applications, particularly for teleoperation and pandemic-resilient robotics. Xie has further pushed boundaries through biologically inspired soft robots, battery-free wireless optoelectronics for muscle-driven miniature machines, and ultrathin flexible pressure sensors with superior sensitivity. His research on stretchable lead zirconate titanate elastomers and tattoo-like epidermal sensors reflects a deep expertise in nanoengineering and biomimetic design. Collectively, his body of work, surpassing 1,000 citations, represents transformative advances in healthcare monitoring, prosthetics, and next-generation human-robot interaction.
