Autonomous patch-clamp robot for functional characterization of neurons in vivo: development and application to mouse visual cortex.

Journal of neurophysiology
Patch clamping is the gold standard measurement technique for cell-type characterization in vivo, but it has low throughput, is difficult to scale, and requires highly skilled operation. We developed an autonomous robot that can acquire multiple cons...

Differences in muscle activity and fatigue of the upper limb between Task-Specific training and robot assisted training among individuals post stroke.

Journal of biomechanics
OBJECTIVE: To compare the activity and fatigue of upper extremity muscles, pain levels, subject satisfaction levels, perceived exertion, and number of repetitions in Task-Specific Training (TST) compared with Robot-Assisted Training (RAT) in individu...

Influence of New Technologies on Post-Stroke Rehabilitation: A Comparison of Armeo Spring to the Kinect System.

Medicina (Kaunas, Lithuania)
BACKGROUND: New technologies to improve post-stroke rehabilitation outcomes are of great interest and have a positive impact on functional, motor, and cognitive recovery. Identifying the most effective rehabilitation intervention is a recognized prio...

Musculoskeletal design, control, and application of human mimetic humanoid Kenshiro.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics
We have been developing a human mimetic musculoskeletal humanoid called Kenshiro, whose design concept is to thoroughly pursue an unprecedented anatomical fidelity to the human musculoskeletal structure. We believe that research on human mimetic musc...

Improving Outcomes Defending Patient Safety: The Learning Journey in Robotic Liver Resections.

BioMed research international
BACKGROUND: While laparoscopy is currently adopted for hepatic resections, robotic approaches to the liver have not gained wide acceptance. We decided to analyze the learning curve in the field of robotic liver surgery comparing short-term outcomes b...

Holding Robots Responsible: The Elements of Machine Morality.

Trends in cognitive sciences
As robots become more autonomous, people will see them as more responsible for wrongdoing. Moral psychology suggests that judgments of robot responsibility will hinge on perceived situational awareness, intentionality, and free will, plus human liken...

Upper limb robot-assisted rehabilitation versus physical therapy on subacute stroke patients: A follow-up study.

Journal of bodywork and movement therapies
This study aims to analyse the long-term effects (6 months follow-up) of upper limb Robot-assisted Therapy (RT) compared to Traditional physical Therapy (TT), in subacute stroke patients. Although the literature on upper-limb rehabilitation with robo...

Oncologic outcomes in patients treated with endoscopic robot assisted simple enucleation (ERASE) for renal cell carcinoma: Results from a tertiary referral center.

European journal of surgical oncology : the journal of the European Society of Surgical Oncology and the British Association of Surgical Oncology
INTRODUCTION: Open Simple Enucleation (OSE) has been demonstrated to be an oncologically safe alternative to standard partial nephrectomy. We assessed the mid-term oncologic outcomes and predictors of disease recurrence in patients treated with Endos...
