Emerging Technologies For Biohybrid Machines

Shoji Takeuchi, Professor and Director, The University of Tokyo

Engineers have created various kinds of machines such as smart phones, humanoid robots, self-driving cars, etc. However, there are still big hurdles to build a system that demonstrates attractive functions appearing in biological systems, such as single molecule recognition, highly efficient biomolecular production, biocompatibility and self-healing/self-reproducing ability etc…

To achieve this function, we have studied biohybrid machines that harnesses the living system within artificial systems. In this symposium, I would like to talk about a couple of our recent results regarding biohybrid sensors and actuators.
