Sachintha Alwis, Demonstrator at the Department of Biomedical Science at the Molecular Biology and Biochemistry Laboratories at the International Institute of Health Sciences (IIHS), shared a post on LinkedIn about a paper he co-authored with colleagues, published in the Middle East Fertility Society Journal:
“From impaired sperm motility to microrobotics.
Excited to share our recently published scoping review in the Middle East Fertility Society Journal, exploring sperm-driven microrobots (spermbots) and their emerging potential in reproductive medicine.
Honoured to be part of this work and grateful to all our supervisors and co-authors for their guidance and contributions throughout the study.
A fascinating intersection of reproductive medicine, microrobotics and biomedical science — opening new avenues for research in assisted reproduction.”
