Lecture
This lecture covers the design, fabrication, and wireless actuation of micromachines made of functional biomaterials, such as metals, polymers, hydrogels, and engineered cells. It explores applications in targeted therapy, telemetry, material removal, and deployable structures for nerve regeneration and artificial organs. The lecture also discusses the challenges and potential of using microrobots for drug delivery, internal sensing, and medical procedures, highlighting the importance of spatiotemporal control over release to minimize side effects and maximize efficacy.
