Aims & Scope

Journal of Micro and Bio Robotics is devoted to the theory, experiments, and applications of small-scale, bio-inspired robotic systems and micro/nano technologies. Emphasizes on both theoretical and practical engineering research from the micro/nano level to the biological level of robotics. Invites authors to submit original research articles or review articles for publication. All submissions undergo peer review subject to the journal's standards. Manuscripts based on previously published conference papers must be substantially extended.
