About

Zeina Al Masry is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of medical robotics and microengineering, with a primary focus on the design and development of surgical microgrippers. Her work addresses the formidable challenges of miniaturization in robotic-assisted surgery, including precision manufacturing, assembly constraints, mechanism design, biocompatible materials, and actuation systems. Her most cited paper, “Surgical Microgrippers: A Survey and Analysis” (2023), has garnered 4 citations and serves as a critical resource for the field, offering a comprehensive taxonomy of existing technologies and identifying key bottlenecks that hinder clinical translation. By systematically analyzing these obstacles, Al Masry has laid essential groundwork for future innovations in minimally invasive surgical tools. Her contributions are particularly notable for bridging the gap between theoretical micro-robotics and practical surgical applications, making her work highly relevant for students and researchers developing next-generation medical devices. Through her rigorous survey and analytical framework, she continues to shape the trajectory of microgripper research, positioning herself as a rising voice in surgical robotics.
