Author Information

Xinyu Liu?is the Percy Edward Hart Professor of Mechanical and Industrial Engineering at the University of Toronto. Prior to joining the University of Toronto, he was an Associate Professor and the Canada Research Chair in Microfluidics and BioMEMS in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at McGill University. His research focuses on microfluidics, bioMEMS, and soft and micro robotics, with applications primarily in medicine and biology. He received the Canadian Rising Star in Global Health Award, the Douglas R. Colton Metal for Research Excellence, the McGill Christophe Pierre Award for Research Excellence, the MINE Outstanding Young Researcher Award, and seven best paper awards at major engineering and biomedical conferences. He is a fellow of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers. Dr. Sun is a Professor at the University of Toronto. He is a Tier I Canada Research Chair and the Director of Robotic Institute, University of Toronto. His Advanced Micro and Nanosystems Laboratory specializes in developing innovative robotic and AI technologies for reproductive medicine. He was elected Fellow of ASME (American Society of Mechanical Engineers), IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers), AAAS (American Association for the Advancement of Science), NAI (US National Academy of Inventors), and AIMBE (American Institute of Medicine and Biomedical Engineering) for his work on micro/nano devices, robotic systems and AI technologies.
