Current research
Professor Jiang has multidisciplinary research expertise across electromechanical sensors/actuators, advanced nanomaterials & devices, and intelligent systems. She has over 15 years’ experience in conducting research in the fields of e.g. healthcare technologies, wearable sensor systems, body interface systems, and human biomechanics. Her research interest also expands to micro/nano electromechanical systems, which is built upon novel material sciences, modelling and development of micro/nano-fabrication processes.
Liudi has a proven capability to bridge across different disciplines through collaborations with some of the best researchers in the UK. She has built a broad funding portfolio by attracting over £10 M in Research Funding from EPSRC, MRC, NIHR, UKRI, British Heart Foundation, and industry. She has published over 100 papers. She is the Engineering Lead of the EPSRC Centre for Doctoral Training in Prosthetics & Orthotics. She is currently the Head of the Engineering Materials Research Group.

Research groups
Any research groups you belong to will automatically appear on your profile. Speak to your line manager if these are incorrect. Please do not raise a ticket in Ask HR.
Research interests
Add up to 5 research interests. The first 3 will appear in your staff profile next to your name. The full list will appear on your research page. Keep these brief and focus on the keywords people may use when searching for your work. Use a different line for each one.
In Pure (opens in a new tab), select ‘Edit profile’. Under the heading 'Curriculum and research description', select 'Add profile information'. In the dropdown menu, select 'Research interests: use separate lines'.
Current research
Update this in Pure (opens in a new tab). Select ‘Edit profile’ and then ‘Curriculum and research description - Current research’.
Describe your current research in 100 to 200 words. Write in the third person. Include broad key terms to help people discover your work, for example, “sustainability” or “fashion textiles”.
Research projects
Research Council funded projects will automatically appear here. The active project name is taken from the finance system.
Publications
Public outputs that list you as an author will appear here, once they’re validated by the ePrints Team. If you’re missing any outputs that you’ve added to Pure, they may be waiting for validation.
Supervision
Current PhD Students
Contact your Faculty Operating Service team to update PhD students you supervise and any you’ve previously supervised. Making this information available will help potential PhD applicants to find you.
Teaching
I contribute to modules across all University student levels, including Mechanical Systems Analysis, Advanced Sensors and Condition Monitoring. I supervise a number of popular individual projects, MSc projects, as well as Group Design Project every year. I am particularly passionate about research led teaching and education, integrating state of the art research with conventional engineering knowledge and theories.
You can update your teaching description in Pure (opens in a new tab). Select ‘Edit profile’. Under the heading and then ‘Curriculum and research description’ , select ‘Add profile information’. In the dropdown menu, select – ‘Teaching Interests’. Describe your teaching interests and your current responsibilities. Aim for 200 words maximum.
