About
Lingbin Xue is a pioneering researcher in medical robotics, with a focused expertise in soft robotics and teleoperation systems for infectious disease diagnostics. Her most impactful work addresses the critical need for safe COVID-19 oropharyngeal (OP) swab sampling, developing the Tele-Operated Oropharyngeal Swab (TOOS) Robot, enabled by a novel TSS Soft Hand. This bio-inspired, soft robotic hand allows for remote, dexterous, and gentle sampling, dramatically reducing the infection risk for healthcare workers. Her contributions are documented in highly cited publications (2021), with the foundational TOOS paper garnering 39 citations, underscoring its significance in pandemic response. Xue’s research elegantly merges biomimetic design with practical clinical needs, creating a tangible solution that enhances both safety and sampling efficacy. Her work stands as a landmark achievement in telemedicine robotics, directly addressing a pressing global health challenge and paving the way for future remote diagnostic tools.
