Core Initiatives

From surgical robotics to micro-additive manufacturing, these are the projects driving my mission to bridge mechanics and medicine.

Venture / Clinical 2023 – Present

Haystack Medical

Developing the first reliable access platform for intra-labyrinthine drug delivery. We use ultra-sharp metallic microneedles to cross the Round Window Membrane without damaging the delicate structures of the inner ear.

  • $2.0M Seed Round Underway
  • First-in-Human Trial (Columbia NYP)
  • Patented 2PTE-Fabricated Hardware

2PTE Fabrication

Two-Photon Templated Electrodeposition (2PTE) is a hybrid micro-additive manufacturing process. It combines the resolution of 3D laser writing with the structural integrity of electrodeposited metals to create sub-millimeter surgical tools.

  • Resolution down to 200nm
  • Fully Metallic (Nickel/Gold/Cobalt)
  • 20+ Peer-Reviewed Publications

LLM-Assisted R&D

Integrating Large Language Models (LLMs) like Gemini and specialized agents into the medical device development workflow. This includes automating literature reviews, accelerating clinical trial metadata management, and optimizing CAD prototyping logic.

Status: Exploring Gemini API & OpenClaw implementations
