Health & Medical Engineering
- Collective Intelligence and Bionic Robotics (CIBR) Lab
CIBR Lab is a joint lab between ECE faculty, Professor Jie Fu and ME faculty, Professor Zhi Li, under the Robotics Engineering Program. Our research focus is to bring a joint force between control theory, machine learning and robotics to achieve two major objectives: First, we aim to develop algorithms to achieve provably safe, adaptive and robust performance in autonomous systems in the presence of unknown, uncertain and dynamical environments. Second, we aim to build the algorithmic foundation for bionic robotics that facilitates a seamless collaboration between humans and robots, with applications to advanced manufacturing, health, and medical robotics.

- Secure Cyber-Physical Systems Lab
Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) are comprised of tightly integrated cyber (sensing, communication, computation) and physical (actuation) components in applications including transportation, medicine, energy, and housing. The goal of our lab, directed by Professor Andrew Clark, is to develop foundations for CPS with provable guarantees on safety, performance, and security, in the presence of dynamic environments, random faults and failures, and malicious attacks.
Power and Renewable Energy Systems
- Renewable Energy Innovations Laboratory
Renewable Energy Innovation Laboratory, directed by Professor Yousef Mahmoud, emphasizes all aspects of innovations in renewable energy systems for the conversion, delivery, and its use in electrical form. Our aim is to contribute in expanding the utilization of renewable energy resources in the world by addressing technical challenges impeding their utilization, including reducing their cost, and improving their overall efficiency, operation, control, integration and reliability. Our objective is also to commercialize and transfer our developed technologies to market. Professor Alexander Emanuel also focuses on researches preventing chaos in deregulated energy environments and design of efficient power electronics circuits.
