About Program:

Micro- and nanorobots represent a breakthrough in precision medicine, offering controlled navigation, targeted delivery, and on-demand therapeutic action at cellular and tissue scales. Powered by magnetic, chemical, acoustic, or light-driven mechanisms, these tiny robots can traverse complex biological environments such as blood vessels, tumor tissues, and gastrointestinal tracts—overcoming limitations of conventional drug delivery systems.

This workshop covers the fundamentals of micro/nanorobot design, fabrication concepts, propulsion physics, targeting mechanisms, and therapeutic payload integration. Participants will explore real-world case studies in cancer therapy, antimicrobial treatment, minimally invasive surgery, and diagnostics. Dry-lab sessions will focus on design logic, simulation concepts, and data-driven optimization strategies relevant to biomedical micro/nanorobotics.

Aim: This workshop aims to introduce participants to the emerging field of micro- and nanorobotics for targeted drug delivery and therapeutic applications. It focuses on how engineered micro/nanorobots navigate biological environments to deliver drugs with high precision and minimal side effects. Participants will gain conceptual and design-level understanding of propulsion mechanisms, targeting strategies, and biomedical integration. The program emphasizes translational relevance for next-generation therapeutics.
