About

Dr. Qi-ming Yu is a pioneering figure in surgical robotics, with a focused expertise in robotic-assisted ophthalmic microsurgery. His most cited work, "Towards Robotic-Assisted Subretinal Injection: A Hybrid Parallel–Serial Robot System Design and Preliminary Evaluation" (2019, 114 citations), addresses the critical challenges of hand tremor, dexterity, and visual feedback in delicate subretinal procedures. Dr. Yu’s major contribution lies in the design and preliminary evaluation of a hybrid parallel-serial robot system that enhances precision and stability for subretinal drug delivery, a procedure essential for treating retinal diseases like age-related macular degeneration. By mitigating the limitations of human dexterity and providing improved visual feedback, his system represents a significant leap toward safer, more effective microsurgery. This work has garnered substantial attention, with 114 citations reflecting its impact on the field of medical robotics. Dr. Yu’s research not only advances the technical capabilities of surgical robots but also holds promise for transforming outcomes in ophthalmic surgery, making him a key innovator at the intersection of robotics and clinical medicine.
