About

Miguel Pedrozo is a rising researcher in biomolecular nanotechnology, specializing in DNA origami and nanorobotics. His work centers on engineering synthetic nanoscale systems that emulate basic robotic capabilities—defined motion, sensing, and actuation—by leveraging the programmable geometry of DNA. Pedrozo’s major contribution lies in demonstrating steric communication between dynamic components on DNA nanodevices, a concept that enables precise, rapid actuation through spatial interactions rather than chemical signals. This breakthrough advances the design of complex, reconfigurable nanomachines with potential applications in targeted drug delivery and molecular computing. His most-cited paper (2023, 7 citations) and its precursor (2022, 2 citations) have collectively garnered 9 citations, establishing a foundation for future work in autonomous nanoscale systems. By merging structural DNA nanotechnology with robotics principles, Pedrozo is helping to unlock the next generation of intelligent, responsive nanomaterials.
