Dr. Jacob Rosen shares and demonstrates his fascinating new invention â€" a robot that helps stroke patients regain mobility. Jacob Rosen is a professor of medical robotics at the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering with joint appointments with the Department of Surgery and the Department of Bioengineering, University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA). His research interests focus on medical robotics, biorobotics, human centered robotics, surgical robotics, wearable robotics, rehabilitation robotics, neural control and human-machine interface. Dr. Rosen received his B.Sc. degree in Mechanical Engineering, M.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees in Biomedical Engineering from Tel Aviv University in 1987, 1993 and 1997 respectively. From 1987 to 1992 Jacob served as an officer in the IDF studying human-machine interfaces. From 1993 to 1997 he was a research associate developing and studying the EMG-based powered Exoskeleton at the Biomechanics Laboratory, Department of Biomedical Engineering, Tel Aviv University. During the same period of time he held a position at a startup company developing innovative orthopedic spine/pelvis implants. From 1997 to 2000 he was a post-doctorate at the departments of Electrical Engineering and Surgery, University of Washington while developing surgical robotic and medical simulation systems. From 2001 to 2008 Jacob served as a faculty member at the Department of Electrical Engineering, University of Washington in Seattle with adjunct appointments with the Departments of Surgery. From 2008 to 2013 he served as a faculty member at the Department of Computer Engineering, University of California, Santa Cruz (UCSC). Since 2014 he has served as a full professor at UCLA, directing the Bionics lab, and serves as a member at the Center for Advanced Surgical and Interventional Technology at David Geffen School of Medicine, UCLA. Dr. Rosen developed several key systems in the field of medical robotics such as the Blue and the Red Dragon for minimally invasive surgical skill evaluation that is commercialized by Simulab as the “Edgeâ€; Ravenâ€"a surgical robotic system for telesurgery that is commercialized by Applied Dexterity as an open source research platform; several generations of upper and lower limb exoskeletons; and most recently the Exo-UL7â€"a dual arm wearable robotic system. He is a co-author of 100 manuscripts in the field of medical robotics and a co-author and co-editor of two books entitled Surgical Roboticsâ€"Systems, Applications, and Visions and Redundancy in Robot Manipulators and Multi-robot Systems published by Springer.
