About
Arndt F. Schilling is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of bioprinting, bionic reconstruction, and robotic rehabilitation. His most influential work, “Organ Bioprinting: Are We There Yet?” (2017, 90 citations), critically assesses the field’s progress toward engineering vascularized tissues, highlighting both breakthroughs and persistent challenges in 3D bioprinting. Schilling’s contributions extend into bionic medicine: in a landmark 2023 study, he combined robotic surgery with targeted muscle reinnervation to harvest a rectus abdominis muscle transplant for a transradial amputee, dramatically improving myocontrol and reducing pain—a novel fusion of surgical robotics and neural interface technology. He also advances legged robotics for extreme terrains, developing the PrePARE framework (2022, 13 citations) that uses predictive proprioception to detect failures on slippery surfaces, and designs flexible mechatronic systems for wrist impedance measurement (2023, 2 citations) to enable safe, autonomous home rehabilitation. With a career bridging tissue engineering, neural-controlled prosthetics, and adaptive robotics, Schilling exemplifies translational innovation—turning complex engineering challenges into tangible clinical and exploratory solutions.
