Resume
Academic Achievements
- - Publications: Such as demonstrating shape control of a 50mm long by 1.8mm diameter magnetic catheter.
- - New developments: Including a miniature rolling magnetic robot designed for non-invasive 'virtual biopsies'.
Research Experience
- - Research spans several fields of surgical robotics with a focus on medical capsule robots, robotic endoscopy, soft surgical robots, affordable medical devices, and autonomy in robotic surgery.
- - Covers the full spectrum of surgical robotic research from basic hypothesis-driven scientific investigation to translational approaches toward first-in-human trials.
Background
- Strives to enable earlier diagnosis, wider screening, and more effective treatment for life-threatening diseases such as cancer through the creation of affordable and intelligent robotic solutions.
Miscellany
- Focuses on using magnetic manipulation and localization techniques to improve the safety and accuracy of minimally invasive procedures; explores low-cost designs to facilitate cancer screening in resource-limited settings.
