About
Dr. Jinju Cong is a pioneering researcher in the field of ophthalmic surgical robotics, with a primary focus on developing advanced robotic systems for delicate intraocular procedures. Her most significant contribution to date is the design and development of the Robot-Assisted Subretinal Surgery Robot (RASR), a groundbreaking system that addresses the extreme precision requirements of subretinal injections—a critical procedure for treating retinal diseases. By integrating a remote center of motion (RCM) mechanical design with master-slave teleoperation, Dr. Cong’s work has demonstrated the feasibility of robot-assisted subretinal delivery in preclinical models, as evidenced by her highly cited 2022 paper (21 citations). This research represents a major step toward overcoming the limitations of manual surgical dexterity in ophthalmology. Dr. Cong’s work is particularly notable for its translational potential, bridging engineering innovation with clinical need. Her achievements position her as a rising leader in surgical robotics, with implications for improving outcomes in gene therapy and cell transplantation for retinal disorders.
