Bioengineered Interfaces for Peripheral Nerve Sensory Restoration
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Half of amputees abandon their prosthetics for lack of feeling. This review charts the full path from peripheral nerve injury to restored sensation, through surgical, regenerative, noninvasive, and implanted approaches, and shows how injury type and interface material properties determine which strategy can deliver naturalistic feedback, and why ...

Auditory–Tactile Congruence for Synthesis of Adaptive Pain Expressions in RoboPatients
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.In this work, we explore auditory–tactile congruence for synthesizing adaptive vocal pain expressions in robopatients. Using a robopatient platform that integrates vocal pain sounds with palpation forces, we conducted 7680 trials across 20 participants.
