Keynote Lecture: Endoluminal Robotics & Embodied AI in vivo<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

On the morning of 22 May 2026<\/strong>, Prof. Ren presented a talk titled \u201cEndoluminal Robotics & Embodied AI in vivo.\u201d<\/strong> The lecture focused on recent developments in dexterous robotic motion generation and motion perception for intelligent image\u2011guided minimally invasive procedures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prof. Ren highlighted how procedure\u2011specific telerobotic surgical systems can assist surgeons in performing dexterous manipulations using continuum motion generation mechanisms with variable stiffness and context awareness. The talk addressed the opportunities and challenges brought by minimally invasive surgeries, particularly in surgical motion generation, motion understanding, and intelligent robotic manipulation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Short Bio of Prof. Hongliang Ren<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Prof. Ren received his Ph.D. in Electronic Engineering (Biomedical Engineering) from CUHK in 2008. He has held academic positions at Johns Hopkins University, Boston Children\u2019s Hospital, Harvard Medical School, and the National University of Singapore. He is a recipient of the National Science Fund for Distinguished Young Scholars (Scheme A), the CUHK Young Researcher Award, and multiple best paper awards. He has been consistently listed among the world\u2019s top 2% most\u2011cited scientists by Stanford University. He has published over 240 papers with more than 22,770 citations and an H\u2011index of 75.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Audience Engagement<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The keynote session was attended by researchers, faculty members, and students from both online and offline venues. Prof. Ren\u2019s talk was followed by a brief Q&A session, where the audience engaged in discussion on continuum robotics, embodied AI, and clinical translation of surgical robots.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
