About
Yingzhe Wang is a pioneering researcher in biohybrid robotics and soft actuation, specializing in the integration of biomolecular motors into printable, active network actuators. Wang’s major contributions include engineering the first printable active network actuator from biomolecular motors (71 citations), which serves as an artificial muscle for microrobots capable of in situ manipulation and microsurgery. This work, along with the development of contractile and tensile measurement techniques for molecular artificial muscles, has laid the foundation for a new class of biohybrid robots that overcome the design limitations of conventional actuators. Wang has also advanced teleoperated locomotion for biobots, demonstrating international collaboration between Japan and Bangladesh (15 citations), and explored bioinspired designs such as the asymmetric-bifurcation snapping mechanism of the Venus flytrap (6 citations) and hingeless pneumatic actuators inspired by plants. Additionally, Wang’s innovative optofluidic maskless lithography method for fabricating hydrogel-based tubular microstructures (1 citation) promises new applications in soft robotics and medical devices. With over 140 total citations, Wang’s work is shaping the future of microrobotics and bioinspired engineering.
