Over the past two weeks, Prof. Dr. Robert Katzschmann has embarked on an academic tour, visiting several prestigious universities across the United States. During these visits, he has delivered talks on cutting-edge topics such as musculoskeletal robotics, medical innovation, and advanced robotic fabrication, while engaging in insightful lab visits, demonstrations, and discussions with students, researchers, and faculty members.
Researchers at ETH Zurich, led by Prof. Robert Katzschmann, have pioneered a biofabrication technique for creating 3D cardiac tissues that closely replicate native myocardial tissue. By controlling the directionality and density of cardiac cells in 3D tissues, we’re setting new standards for cardiac biofabrication. This could have transformative applications in regenerative medicine and biohybrid robotic system.
