THE AI ANGLE
Assisting surgeons with intraoperative decision-makingFarshid Alambeigi designs flexible surgical robots and robotic bioprinting systems through direct observation in operating rooms. His team develops bending robots for complex anatomy and creates automated printers for large muscle repair scaffolds. This approach ties robotic mechanical design directly to surgeon feedback and clinical space constraints.
THE TEACHING ANGLE
Students can examine how designing tools to assist surgeon judgment differs from building systems that pursue complete surgical automation.Read the original at phys.org Generate teaching or study materials
