About

Donglei Chen is a pioneering researcher in the field of soft robotics and microrobotics, with a focus on magnetic programming and sensor integration. Their key research areas include the development of soft millirobots with programmable magnetization and the creation of MEMS-based sensors for passive detection in microrobotic systems. Chen’s major contribution is the introduction of a template-free, 3D programmable magnetization method for soft millirobots, enabled by interlayer stress—a breakthrough that overcomes the limitations of traditional template-based and sequential fabrication processes. This work, published in 2025, has already garnered 5 citations, signaling its rapid impact on minimally invasive medicine, soft electronics, and robotics. Additionally, Chen has advanced the field of microrobotic sensing by integrating memsensors—passive memory sensors—into microrobots for detecting H₂O₂, a critical capability for environmental monitoring and biomedical applications. This innovation, with 2 citations, demonstrates Chen’s ability to address power constraints in autonomous microrobots. Notable achievements include pushing the boundaries of magnetic programming and enabling passive, onboard sensing, making Chen a rising leader in creating intelligent, untethered microrobots for real-world applications.
