About

Peixuan Shi is a researcher advancing the frontiers of soft robotics and autonomous surgical systems. Her work focuses on two critical challenges: enhancing the safety and precision of robotic manipulation, and enabling autonomous soft tissue surgery. In her highly cited 2018 paper on a soft tissue scalpel cutting robotic system with sucker fixation, she tackled the fundamental problem of tissue displacement during autonomous cutting—a bottleneck in robotic surgery. By integrating a suction mechanism to stabilize the target, her system achieved more reliable and precise incisions, laying groundwork for future autonomous surgical tools. Her research on a soft robotic hand pad with active balancing contact force addresses the universal need for safe grasping of delicate or biological objects, ensuring controlled, even force distribution across all fingers to prevent damage. While her citation counts are still growing, the novelty and practical significance of her contributions—particularly in surgical robotics and dexterous manipulation—mark her as an emerging voice in the field. Her work promises to make robotic systems both gentler and more capable in clinical and industrial settings.
