About

Amedeo Franco Bonatti is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of robotics, bioprinting, and intelligent manufacturing. His primary contributions lie in developing robotic platforms and algorithms for *in situ* bioprinting—a technique that prints living tissues directly onto the body during surgery. His most cited work, a 2021 paper on robotic platforms and path planning for this purpose (56 citations), established foundational methods for precise, autonomous tissue fabrication. He further advanced the field by creating systems for surface reconstruction and tissue recognition (27 citations) and motion compensation to counteract patient physiological movements like breathing (17 citations), ensuring print accuracy in dynamic surgical environments. Bonatti’s impact extends beyond bioprinting; he co-authored a 2026 roadmap on Artificial Intelligence-Augmented Additive Manufacturing (AI2AM), envisioning AI as a central framework for adaptive, autonomous fabrication. He has also explored 4D printing in pharmaceuticals, where printed materials change shape over time. With a growing citation record and work spanning robotics, AI, and regenerative medicine, Bonatti is shaping the future of on-demand, robot-assisted tissue engineering and smart manufacturing.
