About
Xinyi Xu is a researcher whose work bridges the frontiers of surgical oncology and human-robot interaction. Her key research areas include the clinical outcomes of robotic esophagectomy and the design of socially assistive robots for workplace health. A major contribution is her investigation into recurrent laryngeal nerve injury following robotic esophagectomy, where her 2023 study (10 citations) provides critical insights into both short-term and long-term surgical complications, informing safer operative techniques. Equally innovative is her design study on the "Anti-Sedentary Robot," a trolley-like social robot that encourages light physical activity in shared workspaces (8 citations, 2022). This work demonstrates how robotic systems can combat prolonged sitting, a growing public health concern. By combining rigorous clinical analysis with human-centered robotics, Xu’s research has garnered attention across disciplines, with her most-cited papers laying groundwork for safer surgeries and healthier work environments. Her achievements highlight a rare ability to translate complex technical designs into practical, life-improving solutions, making her a notable figure in both medical robotics and human-computer interaction.
