邱瑞昕 Ruixin Qiu

I am currently a fifth year Engineering Physics student at UBC and an undergraduate research assistant in AMPEL, supervised by Dr. John D.W. Madden, working on artificial skin for robots and smart roller for automated fibre placement. Prior to this, I worked as an undergraduate research assistant in SimPL, supervised by Dr. Lyndia C. Wu, working on balance adaption tasks with EEG measurement and quantifying balance of hockey players using wearable sensors. I am doing my capstone project on the development of a high throughput LIGO coating tester under the supervison of Dr. Jeff F. Young and Dr. Kirsty Gardner in Blusson QMI. For more details about my project and other experiences, feel free to explore my projects.

My research interests lie in applied mechanics, where I can apply experimental, numerical, and analytical methods to solve mechanics problems. I am particularly intrigued by interdisciplinary studies in MEMS, which involve integrating electrical and mechanical components with physics knowledge. My goal is to contribute to the development of innovative and efficient micro-scale devices.

I enjoy playing and watching football in my spare time. Check out my blog for fun articles, and feel free to browse through my CV and gallery to learn more about me.
