About
Jonas F. Schiemer is a pioneering surgical researcher at the forefront of integrating robotics with gastrointestinal (GI) neuromodulation and oncologic surgery. His work centers on two transformative areas: nerve-sparing robotic surgery for low rectal cancer and the development of wireless theranostic devices for multisegmental GI dysmotility. Schiemer’s major contributions include introducing robot-guided neuromapping during transanal total mesorectal excision (taTME), a technique that enhances visualization of pelvic nerves to preserve function—his seminal 2018 paper on this approach has garnered 12 citations. He also advanced multi-image neuromapping tailored to robotic surgeons’ needs (9 citations). In the GI domain, Schiemer leads the INTAKT project, which prototypes wirelessly communicating implants for intelligent sensing and electrostimulation. His porcine study on multilocular GI electrical stimulation (3 citations) demonstrated that robotic setup ensures consistent effects with minimal tissue trauma, a critical step toward clinical translation. Notably, his 2024 work on multisegmental dysmotilities outlines a surgical blueprint for future theranostic devices. Schiemer’s research bridges engineering and surgery, offering hope for patients with life-threatening motility disorders while refining robotic precision in cancer care.
