Research: Dr. Shkel is interested in the design and advanced control of micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) for biomedical, communication and inertial navigation applications. His research interests center on the development of high-precision micro-machined gyroscopes; MEMS-enhanced optical systems, tools and prosthetic appliances; and the integration of electro-mechanical and machine-information systems. Dr. Shkel’s current research activities include the development of MEMS-based health monitoring systems, disposable diagnostic devices, and neurological vestibular prosthetic implants. He is developing tunable micro-components for ultra high speed fiber-optic communication networks and for monitoring of civil structures. Dr. Shkel also is building high-precision inertial sensors on-a-chip (gyros, accelerometers) for personal navigation and for neurological vestibular prosthetics, and studying micro-mechatronics, which involves the integration of electromechanical and machine-information systems.
