Abstract

This talk will highlight the research that has been performed thus far to develop various diagnostic and surgical systems using platform technologies such as soft robotics, mixed reality, and deep learning. Specifically, systems developed for structural heart and EP interventions, uterine fibroids, and stenotic screening for AV fistulas will be discussed. These projects span various phases of development, starting from proof-of-principle demonstrations in 3D printed phantoms, to pre-clinical studies in large animals, and finally with clinical results in human subjects. Thus, this talk aims to appeal to those interested in translational research conducted by multi-disciplinary teams including engineers, computer scientists, and clinicians.

Biography

Bobak Mosadegh received his B.S. and M.S. in biomedical engineering from the University of California, Irvine.  He performed undergraduate and graduate level research in Professor Noo Li Jeon’s lab, working on gradient generating microfluidic devices. Dr. Mosadegh received his Ph.D. from the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor while working in the lab of Shuichi Takayama.  His research involved the development of microfluidic integrated circuits and various cell patterning methods using aqueous two-phase systems and microfluidic devices.  Under the guidance of George M. Whitesides, Dr. Mosadegh performed his postdoctoral training at Harvard University and the Wyss Institute of Biologically Inspired Engineering.  His research focused on developing two technologies, i) a 3D paper-based cell culture system for the study of ischemic gradients on cancer cells and cardiomyocytes, and ii) actuators and control systems for soft robotics. Dr. Mosadegh started as an Assistant Professor in the department of Radiology, at Weill Cornell Medicine, in Nov. of 2014, and is currently an Associate Professor. He also serves as the Director of the Dalio Institute of Cardiovascular Imaging and was the convener for the ISO working group on transcatheter cardiac occluders.
