About

Haojin Yang is a leading researcher in the field of medical microrobotics, with a primary focus on magnetic actuation, ultrasound tracking, and minimally invasive endovascular interventions. His major contributions include pioneering the use of mobile-coil magnetic systems for precise control of untethered miniature robots inside the body, enabling long-distance navigation against pulsatile blood flow. He has developed innovative strategies for targeted drug delivery, blood clot removal, and stent deployment in complex ductal anatomy, with his work on magnetically actuated continuum robots and tPA-anchored nanorobots for arterial recanalization receiving over 200 combined citations. Notably, his 2023 review on magnetically actuated continuum medical robots has garnered 140 citations, reflecting its impact as a foundational reference in the field. Yang has also advanced the use of focused ultrasound for selective, Newton-level force output in soft robots, and his QuadMag system enhances magnetic actuation efficiency and dexterity. His research, published in top-tier journals, bridges engineering and clinical medicine, offering transformative solutions for treating vascular occlusions and performing high-precision interventions in submillimeter-scale segments.
