About

Bo Cui is a leading innovator in the field of bioinspired soft robotics and smart materials, with a primary focus on developing high-performance artificial muscles and neuromuscular fibers. His groundbreaking work addresses fundamental challenges in creating fibers that seamlessly integrate actuation and sensing, mimicking biological systems like snail tentacles. Cui’s major contributions include the development of artificial neuromuscular fibers using multilayered coaxial integration, enabling dynamic environmental adaptation and actuation path tracing (73 citations). He has also pioneered high-temperature-tolerant artificial muscles using poly(p-phenylene benzobisoxazole) composite yarns (46 citations) and artificial muscle fascicles that combine superior actuation with energy-storage functionality (37 citations). His recent innovations include coiled carbon nanotube fibers sheathed by reinforced liquid crystal elastomers for strong, programmable artificial muscles (28 citations) and a dual-ion co-regulation system enabling electrochemical yarn muscles with energy-free catch states (12 citations). Collectively, his work has garnered over 196 citations, establishing him as a key figure in advancing smart textiles and soft actuators for applications ranging from robotics to wearable technology.
