About
Zoran Cenev is a researcher whose work sits at the intersection of micro- and nanorobotics, magnetic manipulation, and fluid dynamics. His primary contributions focus on developing innovative techniques for the precise, contactless control of microparticles—a critical capability for advancing in vitro biomedical studies and lab-on-a-chip applications. Cenev’s most impactful work, “Manipulating Superparamagnetic Microparticles with an Electromagnetic Needle” (2017, 23 citations), introduced a method for selective, high-throughput manipulation of individual particles, enabling location-tailored studies. He further advanced the field with his work on ferrofluidic manipulators (2021, 19 citations), which demonstrated automatic manipulation of nonmagnetic particles at an air-ferrofluid interface, and his discovery of a novel motion mechanism for diamagnetic particles on paramagnetic liquid interfaces (2021, 8 citations). Cenev has also tackled the challenge of autonomous micromanipulation by developing a supervised ensemble learning classifier for 3D object tracking (2016, 5 citations) and achieved simultaneous, independent control of two identical particles using robotic electromagnetic needles (2022, 2 citations). His work consistently pushes the boundaries of precision and automation in small-scale manipulation.
