Cell penetration is an indispensable step in many cell surgery tasks. Conventionally, cell penetration is achieved by passively indenting and eventually puncturing the cell membrane, during which undesired large cell deformation is induced. Piezo drills have been developed to penetrate cells with le
Existing approaches for robotic control of magnetic swarms are not capable of generating magnetic aggregates precisely in an arbitrarily specified target region in a fluidic flow environment. Such a swarm control capability is demanded by medical applications such as clinical embolization (i.e., loc…
This paper presents the first system for automated ex vivo perfusion of an isolated heart and regulating the heart's aortic pressure (AoP). An adaptive controller was developed for AoP regulation and maintained the heart's physiological aerobic metabolism. A mathematical model of the perfusion syste…
