About
Audrey Ng is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of robotics, biology, and materials science, best known for her visionary work on "growable robotics." Her most-cited paper, "Toward Growable Robot: Exploring and Integrating Flexible – Biological Matter with Electronics" (2018, 27 citations), lays the conceptual and practical groundwork for robotic systems that can self-grow, adapt, and integrate living tissues with synthetic electronics. This work challenges traditional notions of rigid, pre-fabricated machines, proposing instead a future where robots share key characteristics of living organisms—such as self-assembly, regeneration, and environmental responsiveness. Ng’s contributions are foundational to the emerging field of bio-hybrid robotics, where she explores how flexible biological matter can be seamlessly combined with electronic components to create truly adaptive machines. Though her citation count is still growing, her influence is already evident in cross-disciplinary discussions on soft robotics, synthetic biology, and sustainable technology. Audrey Ng’s research invites us to reimagine what robots can become—not just tools, but evolving, living systems.
