Academic Achievements
  • His research interests include continuum robots, FBG Sensors, Magnetic Actuation, and Surgical Robots. Recent projects explore novel designs such as origami-inspired mechanisms and hybrid magnetic-actuated devices.
Research Experience
  • Currently, Dr He is a Lecturer (Assistant Professor) in the Discipline of Medical Engineering at the University of Newcastle, Australia. He leads research in magnetically actuated robotic tools, deep learning-based robotic control, ultrasound-guided microrobot navigation, and continuum robot systems for microsurgeries. Prior to this, he worked as a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Toronto and The Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids) from 2021 to 2023, contributing to several projects in magnetic actuated surgical robots.
Education
  • He received his B.E. in Mechanical and Automation Engineering from Beijing Jiaotong University in 2015 and his Ph.D. from Beihang University in 2021. He was a visiting Ph.D. student at Johns Hopkins University from 2017 to 2019, where he conducted research in surgical robotics.
Background
  • His research focuses on the development of advanced robotic systems for minimally invasive surgical procedures, including magnetic microrobots, continuum manipulators, flexible sensors, and intelligent robotic control frameworks. His work aims to transform traditional open surgeries into safer, more precise, and less invasive alternatives.
Miscellany
  • Fluent in English and Mandarin.
