Oshin Tyagi is an Assistant Professor in Industrial & Operations Engineering at the University of Michigan. She earned her PhD in Industrial Systems Engineering from Texas A&M University. Her core research interests focus on understanding and assessing human physical capabilities in critical contexts, such as fatigue and stress in high-risk environments, employing neuroergonomics and occupational biomechanics techniques. Tyagi has led use-inspired research on the interaction between physical and cognitive factors in the development of wearable technologies for emergency response and healthcare applications. Her investigations include sex-specific brain dynamics related to neuromuscular fatigue and cognitive motor perturbations. She plans to expand her research capabilities to address challenges in occupational ergonomics and human factors. Tyagi is a member of professional societies including the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society and the American Society of Biomechanics. She has received several accolades for her contributions to the field, including the Southwest Center for Occupational Environmental Health Pilot/Small Projects Research Training Grant and the Human Factors Prize for her paper discussing neuromuscular fatigue differences between older men and women.
