About
Chang-Jiu Li is a pioneering researcher whose work spans the critical intersection of urological surgery and soft robotics, demonstrating an unusual breadth of technical and clinical insight. In urology, Li has made significant contributions to the minimally invasive treatment of upper urinary tract stones, with a landmark 2024 review on flexible ureteroscopy (FURS) accumulating 46 citations. This work systematically highlights how FURS—performed through the natural urinary tract—offers patients less trauma, faster recovery, and fewer complications compared to traditional shock wave lithotripsy or percutaneous nephrolithotomy, helping to shift clinical practice toward more patient-friendly approaches. Simultaneously, Li is advancing the frontier of soft robotics, notably through a 2022 study on hybrid hard-soft robots controlled via model predictive control. By designing a touch robot that retains body compliance while enabling accurate modeling, Li addresses a fundamental challenge in human-machine interaction, from screen interfaces to surgical assistance. With over 50 combined citations and a growing portfolio, Li exemplifies how cross-disciplinary innovation—merging clinical urology with cutting-edge robotics—can transform both surgical outcomes and robotic design.
