About
Yasin Cagatay Duygu is a pioneering researcher in the field of soft microrobotics, with a focus on magnetic actuation, biomedical micromanipulation, and autonomous navigation at low Reynolds numbers. His work centers on designing and controlling soft, biocompatible microrobots—such as the innovative "microsnowman" made from alginate microspheres with embedded magnetic nanoparticles—for targeted drug delivery and noninvasive surgery. Duygu’s major contributions include demonstrating the rolling motion of these soft robots under rotating magnetic fields (2022, 10 citations), advancing planar magnetic microswimmers for in vivo applications, and developing real-time teleoperation systems with haptic feedback for precise micromanipulation (2024, 5 citations). His research on rod-like soft robots has achieved propulsion in viscous fluids and navigation in confined geometries, including overcoming tube boundaries for enhanced crawling (2025, 8 citations). With a growing citation impact, Duygu’s work bridges robotics, materials science, and medicine, offering scalable, cost-effective solutions for next-generation biomedical tools. His achievements highlight a commitment to translating soft robotic systems from lab to clinic, making him a rising leader in microrobotics.
