Dr. Pei-An Lee is a postdoctoral research fellow currently working on developing biomechanical modeling to improve the monitoring and management of age-related conditions. Before joining the Hinda and Arthur Marcus Institute for Aging Research, she was a postdoctoral fellow at National Taiwan University, where she got her Ph.D. in Biomedical Engineering and researched balance control, fall risks, and coordination in older adults with knee osteoarthritis before and after total knee arthroplasty via long-term follow-up gait analyses.
My interests include human motion analysis, orthopaedic biomechanics, rehabilitation engineering, sports biomechanics, and wearable sensors. I have experiences in studying knee osteoarthritis, developmental dysplasia of the hip, cerebral palsy and Parkinson’s disease, as well as surgeries and treatments such as total knee replacement, total hip arthroplasty, Pemberton's osteotomy, and Ganz osteotomy.
My current research focus on developing an anthropometric-based model to estimate gait speed under various walking conditions based upon the data recorded by a smartphone.
