Advances in biology and medicine demand robotic technologies for automated manipulation and characterization of cells and sub-cellular structures. Our robotic cell manipulation research involves robotic cell surgery; robotic drug screen; robotic cancer diagnostics; and robotic measurement of intracellular structures. This CRC proposal describes our plan of developing new technologies for minimally invasive robotic biopsy of embryos and for 3D navigation and measurement inside a cell. This program involves fundamental research in robotics/automation at micro-nanometer scales and in cell biophysics. The research will result in transformative ways of manipulating cellular and sub-cellular structures, for both biology research and clinical applications.

生物学和医学的进步需要机器人技术来自动操作和表征细胞和亚细胞结构。我们的机器人细胞操作研究包括机器人细胞手术；机器人药物筛选；机器人癌症诊断；以及对细胞内结构的机器人测量。这项CRC提案描述了我们开发胚胎微创机器人活检和细胞内3D导航和测量新技术的计划。该计划涉及机器人/自动化在微纳米尺度和细胞生物物理学的基础研究。这项研究将为生物学研究和临床应用带来操纵细胞和亚细胞结构的变革性方法。
