About
Sumit Mohanty is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of acoustics, microrobotics, and biomedical engineering. His work centers on developing contactless manipulation technologies—using sound waves and magnetic fields—to control micro- and nano-scale agents for next-generation life sciences and minimally invasive surgical applications. Mohanty’s most cited paper, “Contactless acoustic micro/nano manipulation” (2020, 102 citations), establishes acoustic actuation as a paradigm-shifting tool for handling biological and synthetic agents without physical contact. He further advanced targeted drug delivery with a biocompatible, 3D active microrobotic approach (2019, 28 citations), and designed arc-shaped microswimmers capable of bidirectional propulsion under precessing magnetic fields (2020, 19 citations). His notable work on SonoTweezer—an acoustically powered end-effector for underwater micromanipulation—and intravascular tracking of micro-agents using medical ultrasound (2022, 16 citations) demonstrates a clear trajectory toward clinical translation. Mohanty’s contributions are shaping the future of robotic surgery, lab-on-a-chip devices, and targeted therapeutics, earning him recognition as a leader in contactless micro-robotics.
