Using robotics technology to fight breast cancer
(PHYSorg.com Medicine & Health)

Vincent Groenhuis, a Ph.D. candidate at the University of Twente, has spent the past four years working on the fight against breast cancer. Using various prototypes of 3-D-printed biopsy robots, he has been able to develop methods which alleviate the suffering of patients and make breast cancer testing more accurate and efficient. Vincent Groenhuis was awarded his Ph.D. cum laude on 9 January. But for him, the work does not stop here.
