Senior Lecturer in Electrical and Electronics Engineering

University of Sussex, UK

Dr. Elizabeth Rendon-Morales is a Senior Lecturer in Electrical and Electronics Engineering in the Department of Engineering and Design at the University of Sussex. Her areas of expertise include sensors, electronics, robotics and telemetry systems; and her current research is concentrated on the design, development and testing of sensing electronic systems and medical instrumentation. Within the sensing area, she is leading the development of advanced and non-invasive sensing devices to monitor electrocardiogram [ECG] signals on living organisms, including zebrafish, premature babies and fetuses during early pregnancy and throughout labour. On the robotics area, she is leading the development and integration of micron level sensors and precision instrumentation tools in order to achieve high linearity and repeatability, which could contribute to the next generation of surgical robotic systems.
