About

Sara Mohseni Taromsari is a pioneering researcher in surgical robotics and tactile sensing, whose work addresses a critical challenge in minimally invasive surgery: the loss of haptic feedback during micro-scale procedures. Her research focuses on developing screen-printed tactile sensors for magnetically controlled microgrippers used in robot-assisted endoscopic intraventricular surgery. In her highly cited 2023 paper, she introduced a resistive tactile sensor that enables surgeons to monitor tissue interaction forces during microgripper operations, a breakthrough for procedures where direct physical contact feedback is absent. Her 2024 follow-up work advanced this concept with a capacitive tactile sensor, further improving the monitoring of tool–tissue interactions and grasping performance. These innovations have garnered significant attention, with her 2023 paper accumulating 27 citations and her 2024 work reaching 11 citations, reflecting the field's urgent need for such solutions. By restoring tactile sensory information in millimeter-scale surgical tools, Mohseni Taromsari's contributions are paving the way for safer, more precise neuroendoscopic procedures, directly impacting the future of robot-assisted surgery.
