About us

Welcome to the Neuromechanics Research Group at the Centre for Biomedical Engineering, IIT Delhi, headed by Prof. Deepak Joshi. Our research group explores the experimental and computational techniques in the following areas – Intelligent Prosthesis, Neuromotor Disorders like – Parkinson’s, Stroke, Cerebral Palsy, and Spinal Cord Injury, Alternative Medicine – Yoga, Meditation, Stress Detection. We work on the neural characterization of balance and gait in various neurodegenerative and neurodevelopmental diseases, whose theoretical outcomes are then translated to rehabilitation, gait monitoring devices, and assistive devices for patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD), Amputee, and Cerebral Palsy (CP). Our research group also explores rehabilitation strategies for upper and lower limbs through scientific and computational methods for stroke and Spinal Cord Injured (SCI) patients. Meanwhile, we are also investigating the therapeutic effects of mediation and yoga on dire conditions like cognitive stress, which includes the development of assistive devices to identify the sympathetic nervous system (SNS) and parasympathetic nervous system (PNS) activation. Apart from these, our work in cardiovascular health deals with effective wearable sensing technologies, anomaly detection, and the inspection of the electromechanical behaviour of cardiac muscles. Recently, the group has been actively involved in machine learning applications in various biomedical images and image processing. At first, thermal images are used for wound assessment for pressure ulcer detection. Later, image processing tools were utilized to characterize the dimensions of wounds. Future work will involve image processing for musculoskeletal injuries such as MRI, CT, X-ray, and Ultrasound images.
