The 10th iteration of the IEEE International Conference on Biomedical Robotics and Biomechatronics – BioRob2024 – represents a collaborative endeavor between two IEEE Societies: Robotics and Automation (RAS) and Engineering in Medicine and Biology (EMBS).

BioRob delves into both theoretical and practical challenges arising from the integration of robotics and mechatronics into medicine and biology. The main objective of Biorobotics is to evaluate biological systems through a ‘biomechatronic’ lens, striving to unravel the scientific and engineering principles that underpin their exceptional performance. This deep comprehension of biological system functions, behaviors, and interactions serves two primary purposes: to inform the design and creation of new, high-performance bio-inspired machinery and systems for various applications, and to foster the development of innovative nano-, micro-, and macro-devices that can act upon, replace, or assist human beings in areas such as disease prevention, diagnostics, surgical procedures, prosthetics, rehabilitation, and personal assistance.

Main Conference Themes

The IEEE BioRob2024’s technical program will encompass invited talks, paper sessions for contributed works, workshops and tutorials, contributed posters, poster sessions for late-breaking results, continuing medical credits (CME), exhibitions, and more.

Papers may span various domains of Biorobotics and Biomechatronics, including:

• Rehabilitation robotics
• Biologically-inspired robotics
• Implantable and ingestible robots
• Bioinspired and bio-applied soft robots
• Robotic prostheses
• Bionics
