Xuezhi Zeng

Xuezhi Zeng is an Associate Professor and researcher in the Biomedical Electromagnetics research group within the Department of Electrical Engineering at Chalmers University of Technology. She serves as the program director for the master's program in biomedical engineering and holds the position of associate editor for the IEEE Journal of Electromagnetics, RF, and Microwaves in Medicine and Biology.

Dr. Zeng's research focuses on the innovative application of radar sensor technology for biomedical purposes, specifically through the measurement and monitoring of respiration/heart rate, gait patterns, and human behaviors. Her work spans multiple disciplines including biomedical engineering, electrical engineering, and medical diagnostics, with particular emphasis on non-contact sensing technologies.

The analysis of her recent publications reveals a consistent focus on developing and refining radar-based systems for healthcare applications. Her research trajectory shows progression from fundamental system development (early publications around 2010-2013) toward increasingly sophisticated applications in elderly care, fall prevention, and disease monitoring. Key trends include the transition from laboratory settings to real-world environments, the integration of machine learning techniques, and the development of home-based monitoring solutions.

Dr. Zeng leads multiple research projects funded by prominent organizations including the Promobilia foundation and Kristina Stenborgs Stiftelse för vetenskaplig forskning. Her current projects (2023-2026) focus on innovative breathing movement monitoring, enhancing fall risk assessment and rehabilitation with biomedical radar, improving early diagnosis of Parkinson's disease, and developing radar-based gait analysis for elderly using machine learning.

As head of the master's program in biomedical engineering, Dr. Zeng oversees curriculum development and student supervision. Her leadership extends to research mentorship within the Biomedical Electromagnetics group, where she guides multiple projects at the intersection of engineering and healthcare applications.

Dr. Zeng's research laboratory focuses on biomedical radar applications, specializing in non-contact vital sign monitoring and movement analysis. Her team works extensively with millimeter-wave and microwave technologies, developing systems for real-world healthcare environments with particular attention to elderly care applications. The laboratory maintains strong connections with clinical partners to ensure practical relevance of their technological developments.
