About

Arijit Ghosh is a leading researcher in the field of micro-robotics, with a primary focus on developing untethered, stimuli-responsive devices for biomedical applications. His work centers on creating soft, wireless microtools that can be precisely controlled for minimally invasive surgery and targeted drug delivery. Ghosh’s most impactful contribution is his 2017 mini-review on stimuli-responsive soft untethered grippers, which has garnered 123 citations and serves as a foundational reference for the design of autonomous microgrippers capable of navigating deep in vivo locations. He has also advanced the propulsion of microswimmers, demonstrating how arc-shaped devices can be driven by precessing magnetic fields—a breakthrough for next-generation surgical interventions. Additionally, Ghosh has characterized the forces exerted by thin-film actuators in untethered microdevices, providing critical insights for implantable biomedical tools and miniature robotics. His work, though still early in its citation trajectory, has already shaped the discourse on wireless micro-robotics, with his papers collectively cited over 150 times. Ghosh’s research bridges materials science, robotics, and medicine, positioning him as a key innovator in the quest for smarter, less invasive clinical technologies.
