Biao Zeng

Biao Zeng is a Lecturer in Psychology at the University of South Wales, affiliated with the Faculty of Life Sciences and Education. His work bridges clinical psychology, speech science, and neurorehabilitation. He specializes in virtual reality interventions for motor recovery in post-stroke survivors and audiovisual speech perception, particularly in Mandarin language contexts.

Research interests include the design of VR mirror therapy frameworks, the role of visual-auditory integration in speech perception, and the application of AI for diagnosing respiratory and voice disorders. His studies often explore the effectiveness of interventions for developmental speech-language difficulties and their cost-effectiveness.

Past projects span over two decades, from investigating perceptual processing in developmental dyslexia (2002) to recent advancements in VR therapy feasibility (2022). His publications emphasize translational research, combining experimental psychology with technological innovation to address clinical challenges.

Dr. Zeng collaborates across disciplines, integrating neuroscience, linguistics, and engineering. He maintains a lab focused on speech biomarkers and has contributed to systematic reviews assessing therapy efficacy for anxiety disorders and specific phobias.
