Podcast: Intelligence by Design

September 9, 2025

Our group leader, Dr. Aniket Pal, recently joined the Made in Science podcast by the University of Stuttgart to discuss the future of soft robotics and intelligent design.

In this episode of the Made in Science podcast titled “Intelligence by Design”, Dr. Pal from the Institute of Applied Mechanics shares insights into the world of soft robotics — machines made entirely from flexible materials such as polymers and rubber. He explains how his Emmy Noether-funded research group is developing novel technologies, ranging from shape-shifting actuators to smart catheters for MRI procedures.
