Our Logo

The logo of our lab consists of four main elements:

  • Acoustic/vibration Signal: The noninvasive diagnosis methods and personalized treatments that we develop at Taebi Lab are based on signals such as body sounds and vibrations.
  • Sensor: These sounds and vibrations are measured using sensors such as stethoscopes, accelerometers, and gyroscopes.
  • Signal Features: The gray line in the "Acoustic Signal" is the symbol of a meaningful feature that leads to a better and faster identification of a medical condition.
  • Taebi in Persian: the lab's name written in Persian script.

With the goal of "Intelligent Medical Decision Making for Health Equity" guiding us, our logo represents our commitment to improving health equity through developing cost-effective and widely accessible noninvasive diagnosis methods and personalized treatments.
