Excited to welcome Dr. Mustafa Mete to our lab as a new #postdoc!
Mustafa will bring a wealth of expertise in the design and control of haptic interfaces and soft and origami robotics to our group.
Looking forward to working with him!
So proud of my PhD student Arincheyan Gerald who did an amazing job defending his PhD thesis today! 🤩
Congratulations, Dr. Gerald! 👏

Thrilled to welcome Dr. Ayhan Aktas to our lab as a new #postdoc!
He brings excellent knowledge, skills, and a fresh perspective in design and manufacturing, sensing, and deep-learning based control algorithms for surgical robots to our group.
Looking forward to working with him
Thrilled to see our work featured on the #cover of the February issue of the journal Soft Robotics!

Excited to welcome Dr. Yitong Lu to our lab as a new #postdoc.
Yitong brings a wealth of experience in developing control and planning algorithms for mesoscale surgical robots to our group.
Looking forward to working with her!
Are you attending #HSMR2024? Please check out my Ph.D. student @DanielVanLewen's latest work on "Monitoring Forces in Soft Robotic Brain Retraction via Origami Sensing Modules"! Also, I will be giving two invited talks here lnkd.in/guVDTTDJ and lnkd.in/gnEyHecQ
Check out our latest #paper on @DeviceCP @CellPressNews
We present a #soft optical blood #sensor for #colonoscopy and evaluate its safety and performance ex-vivo with a cohort of 10 novice and expert endoscopists.
