Tai Le I am a Biswas Postdoctoral Fellow in the MIT Perceptual Engineering Lab (MIT PEL) within MIT EECS and CSAIL, where I investigate how nasal interfaces can monitor mucosal health and support new forms of physiological intervention in everyday contexts. I received my Ph.D. in Biomedical Engineering from UC Irvine, where I worked in the Hero Lab (PI: Prof. Hung Cao) on wearable biosensors, zebrafish cardiac monitoring systems, and fetal/maternal ECG devices. Prior to MIT, I worked as a Senior Electrical Engineer at Vena Vitals, Inc., developing continuous blood pressure monitoring systems. CV / Google Scholar / GitHub / LinkedIn / Email |
Tai Le, Biswas Postdoctoral Fellow |
Research InterestsMy research focuses on wearable and implantable biomedical sensing systems for continuous physiological monitoring. At MIT, I investigate nasal interfaces as a platform for mucosal health monitoring and novel physiological interventions. My prior work spans the full hardware-software stack: from PCB design and sensor fabrication to firmware development and signal processing algorithms. I am broadly interested in: wearable biosensors and physiological monitoring, nasal interface design for mucosal health, cardiac signal acquisition and processing (ECG, PPG), zebrafish cardiac electrophysiology models, fetal and maternal health monitoring, and continuous blood pressure estimation. I am open to collaborations on biomedical sensing and wearable health technology. Feel free to reach out at taile@mit.edu. |
