Research Interests

Research Interests

We are affiliated to the Department of Biomedical Engineering at Georgia Tech and Emory. The overarching goal of our research lab is to build the scientific and technical foundations for various robotic systems and apply them in the medical field. These robots include a commercialized robot manipulator and many custom-designed robotic systems, such as concentric tube robots, tendon-driven robots, catheters, and soft robots. We are particularly interested in the design, fabrication, modeling, and control of these robotic systems.
