About

Fatemeh Sahraeeazartamar is pioneering the frontier of resilient soft robotics through her groundbreaking work in self-healing materials and electronics. Her research centers on developing autonomous systems that can detect, localize, and repair damage without external intervention—a critical capability for the next generation of soft robots. Her most cited paper, "Self-healing sensorized soft robots" (40 citations), demonstrates how embedding compatible sensors into self-healing polymers enables robots to recover and operate autonomously after damage. She further advanced this concept by integrating healable resistive heaters directly into soft actuators, eliminating the need for external heating devices (29 citations). Sahraeeazartamar has also made significant contributions to flexible electronics, showing that hybrid carbon black/nanoclay composites based on Diels–Alder dynamic covalent networks synergistically improve both electrical conductivity and healing ability (19 citations). Her recent work on soft self-healing damage localization sensors (5 citations) addresses the critical challenge of pinpointing damage location with reduced electrodes, enabling targeted autonomous repair. With publications spanning 2022–2025, her research is rapidly shaping the future of resilient, self-healing robotic systems.
