About
Cheong Lee is a pioneering researcher in biomedical micro-robotics, with a focus on wireless therapeutic and diagnostic systems for vascular and gastrointestinal applications. His work centers on developing active locomotive capsule endoscopes and biomimetic swimming mini-robots, leveraging electromagnetic actuation and shape memory alloys to enable precise movement and intervention within the body. Lee’s major contributions include the first in vivo demonstration of an intravascular microrobot system for penetrating artificial thromboembolisms (42 citations), and the design of a shape memory alloy–based biopsy device for active capsule endoscopy (38 citations), addressing critical limitations of passive capsules in tubular organs. He also advanced three-dimensional control of swimming tadpole mini-robots using Helmholtz coils (19 citations), and conceptualized micro-hydraulic systems for drug delivery and biopsy in capsule robots. With over 110 cumulative citations, Lee’s innovations bridge engineering and medicine, offering transformative potential for minimally invasive treatments of blood clots and gastrointestinal diseases. His biomimetic designs, including jellyfish-inspired robots, highlight a creative approach to solving complex clinical challenges, making him a notable figure in the field of medical microrobotics.
