About
Julien Bert is a biomedical robotics researcher whose work sits at the intersection of medical imaging, surgical robotics, and radiation safety. His research is primarily focused on developing robotic and computational solutions to improve the precision and safety of minimally invasive medical procedures, with particular emphasis on prostate brachytherapy and image-guided interventions. Among his most significant contributions is the development of a 6-degrees-of-freedom co-manipulated robot for low-dose rate prostate brachytherapy, addressing the well-documented inaccuracies of manual radioactive seed implantation that lead to patient side effects. His work on delta robot kinematics and gravity compensation systems demonstrates a thorough integration of mechanical design with clinical constraints. Bert has also advanced fluoroscopy-guided robotic needle insertion for radiofrequency ablation of liver cancer, combining real-time imaging with autonomous robotic control. His earlier work on C-arm pose optimization to reduce intraoperative radiation exposure reflects a sustained commitment to patient and staff safety. With publications spanning from microrobotics to deformable organ modeling during respiration, Bert's research portfolio—accumulating over 30 citations—reveals a researcher progressively shaping the future of precision surgical robotics and image-guided therapy.
