The Biomechatronics, Assistive Devices, Gait Engineering and Rehabilitation Laboratory at the UW–Madison (UW BADGER Lab) led by Peter Adamczyk applies scientific and engineering principles to promote quantitative assessment, restored function, and physical recovery after orthopedic or neurological injury.  Our lab’s goal is to apply mechanical engineering principles to rehabilitation in order to improve lower limb mobility impairments.

This group led by Yunus Alapan works at the interface of robotics, microtechnology and bioengineering, developing soft micro-robots inspired by nature for healthcare applications. The overarching theme of their research is bionic cellular and tissue robots for size-matched and spatiotemporally resolved physical and biochemical manipulation of cells and tissues.
