Description
Micro- and nano-scale technologies can have a significant impact on medicine and biology in the areas of cell manipulation, diagnostics, and monitoring. At the convergence of these new technologies and biology, we research for enabling solutions to real-world problems at the clinic. Emerging nanoscale and microfluidic technologies integrated with biofabrication methods in biology offer innovative possibilities for creating intelligent, mobile medical devices that could transform diagnostics and monitoring, soft micro-robotics with broad applications in cancer, tissue engineering, and regenerative medicine fields. We will present interesting applications of microrobotics via 3-D acoustic bioassembly and other fabrication technologies in fluidics such as in engineering 3-D cancer model constructs, cancer tumor imaging, and soft microswimmers.
