Zhou Zhou

Zhou Zhou is an Assistant Professor (tenure track) in Neuronic Engineering at KTH Royal Institute of Technology's Department of Biomedical Engineering and Health Systems. He is affiliated with the Digital Futures Faculty, a cross-disciplinary research center focusing on digital technologies for societal challenges. His research focuses on neurotrauma prevention, prediction, and protection through computational modeling, machine learning, and biomechanical validation. Dr. Zhou holds a PhD from KTH (2019) and completed postdoctoral training at Stanford University, specializing in sports safety and concussion prevention.

His work is supported by VINNOVA, Swedish Research Council, and others. He received the 2025 Göran Gustafsson Prize for young researchers. Research interests include in silico modeling, fluid mechanics, and safety standardization for helmets. Zhou teaches courses such as Biomechanics and Neuronics (HL2035/CH213V) and leads labs in human and animal neurotrauma modeling. He seeks postdoctoral candidates for rat neurotrauma research.
