SUMMARY:Profs Present - Microrobots with potential applications in medicine
CLASS:PUBLIC
DESCRIPTION:Summary \n\nABSTRACT\n\nThis talk will introduce micro-and nano
 robots and their potential to\nrevolutionize medicine. One of the main goa
 ls of microrobots is to\nmake medical interventions more targeted and less
  invasive. Nano-and\nmicrorobots show great potential for active and remot
 e-controlled\nmotion inside the human body. Possible future applications i
 nclude\nactive\, targeted delivery of therapeutics to diseased sites (e.g.
 \ntumours)\, cell delivery for regenerative therapy and non-invasive\nsurg
 ery. The removal of obstructions inside the body such as blood\nclots\, re
 nal stones or other blockages in a minimal invasive manner is\nanother mai
 n subject of our research. This talk will give an overview\nof the very in
 terdisciplinary research that combines expertise from\nrobotics\, medicine
 \, engineering\, chemistry and biology.\n
