Overview

Gastric myoelectric activity provides a non-invasive window into stomach function, but it is difficult to measure continuously outside of clinical settings. My lab is developing a flexible, wearable electrogastrogram (EGG) patch that captures high-quality signals pre- and post-prandially.

My Work

  • Fabricate and iterate on flexible, skin-conformable EGG patches

  • Optimize materials and substrate design to reduce impedance and noise

  • Develop protocols for device usage and data collection

  • Conduct literature reviews on associations between chronic stress and gastric motility

  • Set up and organize study operations (REDCAP)

  • Assist with and lead in-lab sensor swap sessions with participants
