Dr. Shaoxiong Sun is a Lecturer in Pervasive Data Science and Communications and Marketing Coordinator at the School of Computer Science, University of Sheffield. Previously, he served as a Senior Research Associate in Data Science in Mobile Health at King's College London.
His educational background includes:
- PhD in Physiological Monitoring (joint program), Eindhoven University of Technology and Philips Research
- MEng in Electrical Engineering, Dalian University of Technology, China
- BEng in Electrical Engineering, Harbin Institute of Technology, China
Dr. Sun's research centers on physiological and behavioural monitoring through wearable computing and smartphone technologies. His physiological monitoring work focuses on vital sign estimation (blood pressure, heart rate, respiration) from biomedical signals like PPG, while behavioural monitoring examines mobility and social interactions. His innovations target medical conditions including depression, multiple sclerosis, epilepsy, ADHD, and COVID-19, advancing health data science and remote patient monitoring with strong emphasis on cardiovascular applications.
His 30+ publications demonstrate growing specialization in mobile health data analysis for mental health tracking (particularly depression) and neurological disorder management. Recent work integrates smartphone and wearable sensor data to study pandemic impacts, develop cardiovascular monitoring algorithms, and create digital biomarkers for clinical conditions.
Dr. Sun serves on technical committees for IEEE CHASE 2022 and IEEE BSN 2023, and acts as guest editor for Frontiers in Signal Processing, Frontiers in Digital Health, and Algorithms. No explicit grant funding or student advising details appear in the source material.
As a member of Sheffield's Pervasive Computing research group, he contributes to projects like RADAR-base – an open-source platform for remote data collection using mobile devices and wearables in real-world clinical studies.
