A soft robotic simulator is developed to replicate the digital removal of feces (DRF), a sensitive yet essential nursing procedure. Integrating soft actuators, sensors, and a realistic rectal model, the simulator balances functional fidelity with perceptual realism. Engineering evaluations and nurse feedback confirm its potential to enhance training in

The Internal, External and Extended Microbiomes of Hominins
The social structure of primates has recently been shown to influence the composition of their microbiomes. What is less clear is how primate microbiomes might in turn influence their social behavior, either in general or with particular reference to ...

Gut microbiota and biomarkers are linked to diseases like neurological disorders and metabolic syndromes. Ingestible capsule robots enable minimally invasive gut health assessment. This article proposes a promising direction for the advancement of capsule robots, integrating in situ sampling, real‐time diagnostics, and personalized therapy.

THE DIAGNOSTIC IMPORTANCE OF EXAMINATION OF THE FECES [PDF]
INTRODUCTION At the present time when the medical laboratory men are following Ehrlich and Wright into the fourth dimension of medical science, when clinicians cry for a "deadsure" test and when all demand nice, "new," clean work, it would seem a thankless task to spend fifteen minutes in talking about stool examination.

Tumbling Magnetic Microrobots for Targeted In Vivo Drug Delivery in the GI Tract
We introduce a microrobot design and integrated system for on‐demand targeted drug release in the gastrointestinal tract. The microrobot has an embedded magnet for actuation with external magnetic fields and is visualized in real time using ultrasound. It has two drug release ports sealed with a thermally sensitive wax. Local heating of the wax using a
