BioPhysics Seminar -Selman Sakar (École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne) - Microrobotic Toolkit for Life Sciences
Our laboratory develops small-scale (characteristic length from hundreds of nanometers to few millimeters) actuators and robots. One of the expected outcomes is the introduction of a robotic toolkit that would allow researchers to apply spatiotemporally resolved forces and deformation within living tissues. The development of untethered cell-sized biomedical devices relies on several technological contributions such as the introduction of manufacturing methods for shaping soft matter, the systematic investigation of wave-matter and fluid-structure interactions, and the construction of wireless powering and control systems. Another expected outcome is the integration of mechanical motion control systems based on mechanical instabilities into the devices. This talk will summarize our recent efforts in all these fronts, and discuss the potential of using microrobotic tools for minimally invasive biomedical procedures.
