👶 🍼 🤖 BabyBot: @EPFL PhD student Benhui Dai of the CREATE Lab has worked with a team at Nestlé Research to build a #robot equipped with a soft robotic tongue, sensorized oral cavity, and neural circuits.

Through complex tongue movements and feeding reflexes, BabyBot can ingest liquid & semi-solid foods, replicating feeding behaviors in babies from 0-6 months.

The work highlights the exciting potential of #softrobotics in #pediatric care & #biomedicalengineering! 🔗 https://www.nature.com/articles/s44182-025-00026-3

From 22 to 24 September 2024, the #humboldtmeetsleibniz conference will bring together #biomedicalengineering experts from six continents at #LUH. More information: https://www.uni-hannover.de/en/universitaet/aktuelles/online-aktuell/details/news/humboldt-meets-leibniz-conference-attracts-international-researchers-to-hannover

.. We discuss our interpretation: that we may be seeing (unexpected) regions of high-MW HA that play a role in HA recognition and binding by HA-interacting proteins. At the same time, these (#NMR) methods should be important tools for studying the molecular and atomic features of the wide variety of #hyaluronicacid #polysaccharide based #biomaterials and hydrogels that are in use in the pharmaceutical industry and #biomedicalengineering.
Anyway, check out the paper: https://doi.org/10.1021/acsami.4c08428

Attend the #Bioengineering Day #ScienceSlam at the Munich Institute of #BiomedicalEngineering on July 19! 🎙️ In six slams, our scientists will present exciting research ranging from #prosthetics to #nanorobots. Register until July 12: http://go.tum.de/465283

I am beyond excited about this interview with Dr. Robert Langer! Bob shared his career path, the story behind the development of novel therapeutics for cancer and blindness, his work with many biotech companies (including Moderna), what it's like being in his lab, what he likes to do outside of science, and more. Bob is one of the most prominent scientists (220+ major awards) and most prolific inventors (1,000+ patents) in medicine. He was also impressively down-to-earth and friendly!

This is what we were given to start my molecular engineering class - a flask of H35 hepatocytes. So far in this lab I managed to do almost all the math in my head. This biology stuff is easy 😬 #biomedicalEngineering
