BACKGROUND: Quality improvement (QI) programs with technology implementations have been introduced to long-term care (LTC) to improve residents' quality of life. Plan-Do-Study-Act (PDSA) cycle is commonly adopted in QI projects. There should be an ap...
Joint attention is a pivotal mechanism underlying human ability to interact with one another. The fundamental nature of joint attention in the context of social cognition has led researchers to develop tasks that address this mechanism and operationa...

A widely mentioned but not experimentally confirmed view (known as the 'criticality hypothesis') argues that biological swarm systems gain optimal responsiveness to perturbations and information processing capabilities by operating near the critical ...
DNA origami purification is essential for many fields, including biophysics, molecular engineering, and therapeutics. The increasing interest in DNA origami has led to the development of rate-zonal centrifugation (RZC) as a scalable, high yield, and ...

BACKGROUND: Since its introduction 2 decades ago, robotics has been increasingly used for resection of benign and malignant liver lesions. The robotic platform seems to preserve minimally invasive approach benefits, overcoming laparoscopy limitations...
Ultrasound (US) is one of the most widely used modalities for clinical intervention and diagnosis due to the merits of providing non-invasive, radiation-free, and real-time images. However, free-hand US examinations are highly operator-dependent. Rob...
The purpose of this study was to evaluate perioperative outcomes of robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) using hinotori, a recently developed robot-assisted surgical platform, by comparing them with those using da Vinci. This study included 303 ...
We investigated whether pathological outcomes improved with experience and surgeon generation after robot-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy (RALP). The study included 1338 patients who underwent RALP between February 2010 and April 2020. We creat...
We investigate how reliable movement can emerge in aggregates of highly error-prone individuals. The individuals-robotic modules-move stochastically using vibration motors. By coupling them via elastic links, soft-bodied aggregates can be created. We...
