Collection of microrobots for gentle cell manipulation.

Science robotics
Optically actuated soft microrobotic tools were designed for cell transportation, manipulation, and cell-to-cell interactions.

Responsive Hydrogel-Based Modular Microrobots for Multi-Functional Micromanipulation.

Small (Weinheim an der Bergstrasse, Germany)
Microrobots show great potential in biomedical applications such as drug delivery and cell manipulations. However, current microrobots are mostly fabricated as a single entity and type and the tasks they can perform are limited. In this paper, modula...

Roadmap for Clinical Translation of Mobile Microrobotics.

Advanced materials (Deerfield Beach, Fla.)
Medical microrobotics is an emerging field to revolutionize clinical applications in diagnostics and therapeutics of various diseases. On the other hand, the mobile microrobotics field has important obstacles to pass before clinical translation. This...

Bubble-Based Microrobots with Rapid Circular Motions for Epithelial Pinning and Drug Delivery.

Small (Weinheim an der Bergstrasse, Germany)
Remotely powered microrobots are proposed as next-generation vehicles for drug delivery. However, most microrobots swim with linear trajectories and lack the capacity to robustly adhere to soft tissues. This limits their ability to navigate complex b...

3D-printed microrobots from design to translation.

Nature communications
Microrobots have attracted the attention of scientists owing to their unique features to accomplish tasks in hard-to-reach sites in the human body. Microrobots can be precisely actuated and maneuvered individually or in a swarm for cargo delivery, sa...

Optimization: Molecular Communication Networks for Viral Disease Analysis Using Deep Leaning Autoencoder.

Computational and mathematical methods in medicine
Developing new treatments for emerging infectious diseases in infectious and noninfectious diseases has attracted a particular attention. The emergence of viral diseases is expected to accelerate; these data indicate the need for a proactive approach...

Swarming Aqua Sperm Micromotors for Active Bacterial Biofilms Removal in Confined Spaces.

Advanced science (Weinheim, Baden-Wurttemberg, Germany)
Microscale self-propelled robots show great promise in the biomedical field and are the focus of many researchers. These tiny devices, which move and navigate by themselves, are typically based on inorganic microstructures that are not biodegradable ...

The use of technical-tactical and physical performance indicators to classify between levels of match-play in elite rugby league.

Science & medicine in football
This study aimed to identify which physical and technical-tactical performance indicators (PI) can classify between levels of rugby league match-play. Data were collected from 46 European Super League (ESL) and 36 under-19 Academy (Academy) level mat...

Zwitterionic 3D-Printed Non-Immunogenic Stealth Microrobots.

Advanced materials (Deerfield Beach, Fla.)
Microrobots offer transformative solutions for non-invasive medical interventions due to their small size and untethered operation inside the human body. However, they must face the immune system as a natural protection mechanism against foreign thre...

3D Printing Microactuators for Soft Microrobots.

Soft robotics
Current additive manufacturing, including three-dimensional (3D) and so-called four-dimensional printing, of soft robotic devices is limited to millimeter sizes. In this study, we present additive manufacturing of soft microactuators and microrobots ...
