About

Ze-sheng Li is a pioneering researcher at the forefront of micro- and nanorobotics, with a focused expertise in liquid metal-based systems and biohybrid cellbots for biomedical applications. His most cited work, "Liquid Metal Swimming Nanorobots" (2021, 40 citations), published in *Accounts of Chemical Research*, introduces transformative gallium-based materials that enable unprecedented capabilities in bioengineering, smart medicine, flexible electronics, and energy harvesting. This conspectus has become a foundational reference for the field. Li further advances the domain with his innovative research on "Medical Swimming Cellbots" (2022, 5 and 3 citations), where he addresses critical limitations of synthetic nanorobots—such as immune clearance and biofouling—by engineering biohybrid robots that integrate living cells like sperm, bacteria, and algae. These cellbots achieve self-propulsion and autonomous navigation, promising revolutionary approaches to targeted drug delivery and disease therapy. Li’s work bridges materials science and robotics, offering practical solutions for overcoming biological barriers. With a growing citation impact and a clear trajectory toward clinical translation, Ze-sheng Li stands as a key innovator in the next generation of medical microrobots.
