About
Carlos Nina is a researcher at the forefront of soft robotics and neonatal rehabilitation, specializing in the development of gentle, biomimetic devices for critical medical applications. His most notable contribution is the creation of "Borjibot," a pioneering soft robotic device designed to deliver precise pressure and torsional stimuli for oral-motor rehabilitation in preterm neonates. This work, published in 2020 and garnering 8 citations, directly addresses the urgent need for non-invasive therapies to restore sucking capacities in fragile newborns, leveraging elastomeric pneumatic actuators to mimic natural muscular stimulation. By merging principles of soft robotics with pediatric care, Nina’s research offers a compassionate, high-tech solution to a life-sustaining function, demonstrating significant potential to improve clinical outcomes for vulnerable patients. His achievements highlight a dedication to translating engineering innovation into tangible medical impact, positioning him as a key contributor to the growing field of soft robotic therapeutics.
