  • Research Associate (Electronic & Nanoscale Engineering)

Biography

Judy (Jungang) Zhang is a Research Associate in Electronic & Nanoscale Engineering at the University of Glasgow. Her research spans nano/microelectronics, applied electromagnetics, and nanomanufacturing, with a focus on wireless, batteryless sensing and therapeutic systems for implantable and wearable devices. Her work has been supported by EPSRC, Innovate UK, and the European Innovation Council.

She has published in leading journals, including ACS Nano and IEEE Transactions journals, and her research has received recognition and coverage from more than ten international media outlets. She has also collaborated with the NHS to develop wearable devices for respiratory and overdose monitoring as part of the first NHS REC-approved study at The Thistle, the UK’s pioneering safer drug consumption facility in Glasgow.

She has contributed to UK standards for RF-based wireless charging through a British Standards Institution advisory group. She also serves as a reviewer for npj Flexible Electronics, IEEE Transactions on Biomedical Circuits and Systems, and IEEE Internet of Things Journal.
