Robot Design Lab Hosts Visiting Lecturer for Biomedical Robotics Collaboration
Visiting Lecturer Dr Mohamed Elbadawi Joins Robot Design Lab for Cross-Disciplinary Collaboration in Robot-Enabled Biomedicine
This coming May–June, the Robot Design Lab at KTH will host Dr Mohamed Elbadawi , Lecturer in Computational Biomedicine at Queen Mary University of London, as part of the Digital Futures Summer Early Career (SEC) scholar programme. His visit aims to foster cross-disciplinary collaboration at the interface of robotics, AI, and biomedicine.
During his stay, Dr Elbadawi will present a seminar on digitalising the medicine-manufacturing workflow, engaging researchers from Digital Futures and the Robot Design Lab to explore opportunities for joint projects and proposal development. This visit is intended to serve as a springboard for future collaborations in areas such as digital health, automation in pharmaceutical manufacturing, and programmable drug delivery.
Dr Elbadawi’s research focuses on applying machine learning, robotics, and 3D printing to biomedical challenges. At QMUL, he leads teaching in AI and Data Analytics in Physiology and Biomedicine and has published widely on topics ranging from 3D-printed electro-responsive drug delivery systems to machine-vision-enhanced quality control of medicines. His contributions have been recognised internationally, including listings among the “Stanford Top 2 % Scientists” in 2022 and 2023.
By welcoming Dr Elbadawi, our lab continues its commitment to advancing cross-disciplinary research for the development of robot-enabled solutions for future healthcare and biomedicine.
