On the project

This project focuses on developing chemotactic micromotors inspired by neutrophil behavior to enhance wound healing. The proposed micromotors will incorporate a biomimetic positive feedback amplification mechanism, enabling them to autonomously navigate to wound sites, strengthen chemical gradients, and recruit additional micromotors for coordinated action. This technology has the potential to improve therapeutic micromotor applications where precise and autonomous directional control is required.
