About
Sohaima Mabroora is a pioneering biomedical engineer whose research sits at the intersection of cardiac regeneration and robotic surgery. Her work focuses on developing novel instruments and techniques for minimally invasive delivery of bioengineered cardiac patches—a breakthrough approach to repairing damaged heart tissue without the need for open-heart surgery. In her most cited work, "Cardiac Patch Transplantation Instruments for Robotic Minimally Invasive Cardiac Surgery," she provided the first proof-of-concept designs for robotic tools capable of transplanting tissue-engineered patches onto the beating heart, validated in a porcine cadaver model. This foundational study, with 5 citations, has opened a new frontier in cardiac surgery by demonstrating that regenerative therapies can be delivered through robotic platforms, potentially transforming treatment for heart failure patients. Mabroora’s contributions bridge tissue engineering and surgical robotics, addressing a critical translational gap. Her work is particularly notable for its forward-looking approach, envisioning a future where cardiac regeneration is not only effective but also minimally invasive, reducing patient trauma and recovery time. She represents a new generation of researchers driving interdisciplinary innovation in cardiovascular medicine.
