Our team just got one more year on this project.
Researchers have created a new type of tiny 3D-printed robot that moves by harnessing vibration from piezoelectric actuators, ultrasound sources or even tiny speakers. A paper describing the micro-bristle-bots has been accepted for publication in the Journal of Micromechanics and Microengineering. The research was supported by a seed grant from…
Alex has been selected one of the recipients of the prestigious undergraduate research awards (http://www.undergradresearch.gatech.edu/content/presidents-undergraduate-research-awards). Congratulations!
A collaborative project between GTRI (Dr. Ai-Ping Hu), Emory University (Dr. John Oshinski) and GT (Dr. Ueda) receives $50K seed grant from the 2018 IRIM Seed Grant Program. The project will develop a new robotic system for cell injection.
A lab graduate, Dr. Ellenor Brown (PhD in Applied Physiology, 2017), receives ORISE Postdoctoral fellowship at FDA. Congratulations!!
