About

Fanghao Wang is pioneering the frontier of robotic cell micromanipulation, where engineering precision meets biological complexity. His research centers on developing intelligent, automated systems for handling individual cells—a critical capability for single-cell genomics, drug delivery, and tissue engineering. Wang’s major contributions include the first robotic framework for automated dissection of intact single cells from tissue sections, eliminating the need for manual, error-prone processes. His work on programmable magnetic microgrippers introduces soft, magnetically controlled end-effectors that can grip, hold, and release cells with unprecedented dexterity, while his design of soft microjoints adds rotational flexibility to micromanipulation tasks. With over 38 citations across his most-cited papers, Wang’s impact is already evident in the rapidly growing field of robotic biology. Notably, his 2023 paper on automated cell dissection has garnered 25 citations, reflecting its significance as a foundational method. His 2025 work on multi-tasking networks for cell microinjection points toward a future where AI-driven systems perform complex cellular procedures autonomously. Wang’s innovations are not merely incremental—they are redefining what is possible in the manipulation of life’s smallest building blocks.
