Exciting wrap-up of "SoRo for Healthcare", our inaugural 2-day conference! 🚀 Insightful keynotes from @ellentroche, @danadam13271, @maisifacility, Prof. Yves Perriard, and Prof. Shervanthi Homer,
Looking forward to continuing this conference series next year!

[Majid Taghavi @SoRoTransducers]

Just wrapped up a fantastic workshop at @ICLHamlynRobots with a brilliant diverse speakers from engineering and clinical backgrounds! Together, we explored potential pathways for future impactful technologies that can restore physiological functions
#HSMR23

[Majid Taghavi @SoRoTransducers]

@ProfSheilaRusso Great works 👍

[Majid Taghavi @SoRoTransducers]

Join our workshop at the Hamlyn Symposium where we'll explore soft robotics, advanced biomaterials, and clinical translational science and their potential synergies in addressing unmet challenges associated with mobility and motility disorders. #HSMR23

Soft Robotic Transducers lab members sharing their work with the Electroactive Polymer community at the 11th @euroeap conference in Bristol. Well done visva, @xyj022, @AzaisCaterina.

[Majid Taghavi @SoRoTransducers]

Our demo table in the @imperialcollege's Center for Neuro Rehabilitaion, eagerly awaiting for the #ICRA2023 visitors. Will have an action-packed day with over 130 registered individuals. @ImperialBioeng

[Majid Taghavi @SoRoTransducers]

Visva Moorthy and Lawrence Hou have presented their late breaking results in #ICRA2023 today. Heads up for their publications if you are interested in #haptic feedback, #tremor suppression #orthotics and origami-inspired robotic wrist.

[Majid Taghavi @SoRoTransducers]

Back in the lab with @AliSade83700364 after 7 years! Excited to prepare materials for our workshop tomorrow on "Untethered Soft Robotics", hosted by Unevrsity of Twente.

[Majid Taghavi @SoRoTransducers]

Congrats to Lawrence Hou, who ranked 1st in his MSc cohort and received the best academic performance award! Proud to have you on my team. If attending #ICRA2023, check out his impressive late results poster on origami-inspired wrist actuator before we publish the full paper.

[Majid Taghavi @SoRoTransducers]

Cate and Visva from @SoRoTransducer spent a week at #CIMAINA and conducted fascinating experiments! Thanks P. Milani for hosting. So proud of their hard work and excited to see where their research takes them next.
