Full course description

Modern robotics has transformed many fields and healthcare is no exception. In this lecture, I survey the leading applications of robotics in medicine, surgery, imaging, rehabilitation, and nursing with a focus on key innovations and patient outcomes. I conclude by discussing active research topics in medical robotics and the potential they hold for improving patient care in the future.

Mark Draelos, MD, PhD, is a surgically trained physician and engineer who develops novel applications of medical robotics and imaging to improve patient care. After finishing Duke University’s Medical Scientist Training Program where he studied biomedical engineering under Prof. Joseph Izatt, Mark completed an internship in general surgery at Duke University Medical Center. Currently, he is an Assistant Professor of Robotics and Ophthalmology at the University of Michigan, where he directs the Image-Guided Medical Robotics Laboratory.

Program will also be available live through Zoom.
