About
Yudong Wen is a pioneering researcher in the emerging field of bio-robotics, with a specific focus on carp robot locomotion and biological control systems. His work bridges neurobiology and robotics, exploring how neural stimulation and environmental cues can direct the movement of living fish-robot hybrids. Wen’s most significant contribution is his 2022 study on a novel movement behavior control method for carp robots through stimulation of the medial longitudinal fasciculus nucleus of the midbrain, which has garnered 14 citations—a strong impact for such a specialized area. He has also investigated how light wavelengths influence carp robot motion, demonstrating that blue, green, yellow, and red light can differentially affect behavior, as detailed in his 2021 work. In 2023, Wen advanced the field further by identifying motor nuclei in the medulla oblongata of carp for biological control, laying groundwork for more precise robotic interfaces. Collectively, his research offers foundational insights into non-invasive, neural-based control of bio-hybrid systems, with potential applications in environmental monitoring and aquatic robotics. Wen’s work stands out for its innovative integration of vertebrate neuroanatomy with robotic engineering, making him a notable figure in the niche but growing domain of animal-machine interfaces.
