معرفی
Mei-Hua Lee is an Associate Professor in the Department of Kinesiology at Michigan State University. She holds a Ph.D. from The Pennsylvania State University and leads the Motor Development and Learning Lab (SDLab). Her work focuses on motor development across the lifespan, particularly how infants and young children learn to interact with their environment through reaching and grasping behaviors. She integrates kinematic analysis, biofeedback, and qualitative methods to study motor skill acquisition and its implications for motor learning and rehabilitation theories.
Her research explores the transition from spontaneous movements to goal-directed actions in infancy, leveraging advanced technologies like wearable sensors and machine learning for activity classification. She has pioneered body-machine interface systems to enable assistive device control for individuals with severe motor impairments. Lee’s studies also address methodological challenges in motor learning research, including missing data practices and the design of rigorous experimental protocols.
Key collaborations involve interdisciplinary teams from engineering, neuroscience, and pediatrics. Her lab actively develops novel tools for early detection of developmental disorders through movement analysis and promotes translational research in neurorehabilitation technologies.
