SRL Publishes in Nature Communications

Excited to share that our work has been published in Nature Communications! We developed a biophysical framework that links bioimpedance sensing with fluid dynamics, providing new insights into the physiological mechanisms underlying cuffless hemodynamic monitoring with electricity. Building on this foundation, we designed a physics-informed neural network that provides interpretable predictions of continuous blood pressure and blood velocity, opening the door to advanced hemodynamic monitoring in the next generation of wearable devices.

The SRL is presenting at the American Head and Neck Cancer meeting

We have built a digital health technology platform for use in clinical studies and drug trials, with application in oral health monitoring and outcome measurement at scale. The platform supports objective, data-driven assessment, and it enables earlier detection, rehabilitation planning, and therapeutic evaluation.

PhD Candidate Awarded Tau Beta Pi Fellowship

Nate Hansen, PhD candidate at the Sanchez Research Lab, has been awarded the prestigious Tau Beta Pi Engineering Honor Society Fellowship. His research focuses on developing AI-driven, noninvasive diagnostic technologies for head and neck cancer survivors, combining engineering innovation with clinical impact.

Wearable Ring for Blood Flow Imaging

After four years of development, the Sanchez Research Lab introduces a wearable ring for real-time blood flow imaging and cuffless blood pressure monitoring. This new approach uses bioimpedance imaging and machine learning to reconstruct continuous blood flow and pressure signals. Reference: https://lnkd.in/gsB8ZrQQ

Robust Cuffless Monitoring with Flexible Sensor Placement

Wearable placement can make or break cuffless hemodynamic accuracy. Our in silico study showed impedance plethysmography (#IPG) remains robust even when sensors shift up to 10 mm from the radial artery. Reference: https://lnkd.in/g2GmkUrm

Wearable Bioimpedance Smartwatch for Continuous Blood Pressure Monitoring

We introduce a fully wireless bioimpedance smartwatch capable of continuous cuffless blood pressure monitoring. This system establishes a new biophysical link between electrical bioimpedance and hemodynamic signals. Reference: https://lnkd.in/g2GmkUrm
