Betty Li

Dr. Betty Li is an Adjunct Professor in the Department of Systems and Computer Engineering at Carleton University and a researcher at the Human Health Therapeutics Research Center. She holds a Ph.D. in Biomedical Engineering from the University of Western Ontario (2018), with prior degrees from Western Ontario (Master of Engineering Science, 2013) and the University of Toronto (Bachelor of Applied Science in Nanoengineering, 2011). Her research focuses on developing microphysiological systems, such as organ-on-chip models, using stem cells, 3D bioprinting, and biomaterials to advance preclinical drug discovery. Key research areas include biomaterials, biomechanics, and microfluidic design.

Her recent publications (2023–2025) emphasize 6G networks, non-terrestrial networks (NTN), and AI-driven solutions for wireless communication challenges. She explores topics like federated learning in NTN, hemispherical antenna arrays for HAPS, and energy-efficient satellite IoT systems. Her work bridges biomedical engineering and telecommunications, addressing challenges in both fields.

No scientific awards are explicitly mentioned in the text. She advises no listed students but collaborates on projects involving robotic aerial base stations and spectral efficiency optimization. Her lab work integrates interdisciplinary approaches for in vitro tissue modeling and sustainable network architectures.
