Qiushi Fu is an assistant professor in the UCF Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering. He earned his doctoral degree in biomedical engineering from Arizona State University after completing his master's degree at SUNY Buffalo and bachelor's degree at Tsinghua University. His research focuses on the neural control of human upper extremities using interdisciplinary approaches such as robotics, virtual reality, and neural imaging. His work on human manual dexterity has broad applications in brain-machine interfaces, neurorehabilitation and assistive devices. Fu has developed two graduate courses for the biomedical engineering programs at UCF. His research has been supported by the National Institutes of Health and Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency.
