Ruoli Wang PhD

Ruoli Wang received her Beng in Mechanical Engineering from Southeast University in 2004, and her MSc and PhD in Engineering Mechanics from the Royal Institute of Technology in 2007 and 2012, respectively. Overall, her doctoral studies focused on quantifying biomechanical consequences of gait impairment and deformity of the foot and ankle due to various musculoskeletal disorders or symptomatology. Her postdoctoral research with the Paediatric Neurology group in Karolinska Institutet and the Computational Biology group from KTH centered around the quantification of spasticity and secondary muscle structure, and property changes following spasticity. At her current post at KTH Engineering Sciences, Mechanics, her focus is to develop methodologies for estimating personalized musculotendon parameters non-invasively using a combination of medical imaging, musculoskeletal modeling, and optimization. She got her Docenture specialized in Biomechanics in 2022 and currently is a member of the research group at the Promobilia MoveAbility Lab and is a member of the executive board of the KTH BioMEx Center.
