This made me chuckle😆 I haven't published a paper related to surgery in about a decade. Also, clicking unsubscribe brings up a 'malicious website' warning.

There's nothing like #ICRA2025 decision emails appearing a few days early to suddenly raise your heart rate! 💜 2 out of 3 accepted for our lab this year. It appears that this round of reviewers really like variable friction grippers. I mean, who doesn't?! ;-) See you in Atlanta!

Furthermore, participants preferred the shape-changing feedback to vibration. I'm very proud of this work and the team behind it. Shape-changing haptic interfaces is still an emergent field, but this paper really shows their potential.

A few weeks back I had a little rant about PhD applications that refer to papers that are irrelevant to the candidate's proposed intrests. Some people on LinkedIn thought I was being unreasonable, so I annotated an application email I received today. #PhD #academia

I absolutely LOVE @IEEESpectrum's Video Friday, so it's really nice that they featured our recent work on barometric tactile sensing! Thanks a lot @BotJunkie! #Robotics #tactilesensing #machinelearning

Excited to announce a new IEEE Transactions on #Robotics paper by my lab. We developed an $80 repairable barometric #tactile sensor with an effective resolution of 0.28mm (thanks to ML). Great work by (joint 1st authors) Jian Hou and Xin Zhou! 👏

Personally, I think the biggest achievement of Judith Kerr (bestselling children's author of the charming 'Tiger Who Came to Tea' and 'Mog' series) is that she created a character that has clearly been mis-pronounced by hundreds of thousands of tired parents as 'Mrs Clusterfuck'.
