Despite recent advances in this field, critical challenges still exist in creating intelligent miniature robots that could navigate through complex confined environments and demonstrate practical medical functionalities. This talk will highlight our recent work on developing millimeter-scale soft robots which can climb soft and wet tissue surfaces and perform local drug delivery, as well as recent work on creating cilia-inspired soft robots that are capable of pumping viscous biofluids. This talk will also discuss the potential application of wireless miniature mechanisms, devices, and robots for the next-generation surgery robotic procedures.<\/span><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>VISE Fall Seminar to be led by Xiaoguang Dong, PhD Assistant Professor, Department of Mechanical Engineering Date: Thursday, September 8, 2022 Time:\u00a011:45 a.m. Lunch, 12:00 p.m. start Location:\u00a0Stevenson 5326 Title: Wireless Miniature Robots for Minimally Invasive Medical Operations Abstract: Wireless small-scale robots actuated by magnetic fields could revolutionize minimally invasive medical operations by allowing access&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":670,"featured_media":9367,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"spay_email":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_is_tweetstorm":false,"jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[12],"tags":[32,106,231,72,31,30,747,746],"acf":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/cdn.vanderbilt.edu\/vu-URL\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/193\/2022\/01\/19203410\/Dong_Xiaoguang.jpeg","jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p98pzF-2y1","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.vanderbilt.edu\/vise\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9797"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.vanderbilt.edu\/vise\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.vanderbilt.edu\/vise\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.vanderbilt.edu\/vise\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/670"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.vanderbilt.edu\/vise\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=9797"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.vanderbilt.edu\/vise\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9797\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":9798,"href":"https:\/\/www.vanderbilt.edu\/vise\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9797\/revisions\/9798"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.vanderbilt.edu\/vise\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/9367"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.vanderbilt.edu\/vise\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=9797"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.vanderbilt.edu\/vise\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=9797"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.vanderbilt.edu\/vise\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=9797"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
