Biography

 

Known as nanorobot pioneer, Cavalcanti is the medical nanorobotics inventor for the pratical hardware architecture of nanorobots, which was integrated as a model based on nanobioelectronics for applications in environmental monitoring, brain aneurysm, diabetes, cancer and cardiology. His advanced prototype provided a suitable integrated circuit approach, using an effective wireless platform for energy supply with cell phones and satellite, to enable the commercial implementation of nanorobots with long distance teleoperation and data transfer for health care, drug delivery, and laparoscopic nanosurgery.

 

Cavalcanti is Chairman and CEO of CAN Center for Automation in Nanobiotech NPO. As an engineer and world's leading expert on nanorobotics and nanorobot circuit manufacturing, Cavalcanti has participated in several enterprise project collaborations for the fast development of Nanotechnology and Biomolecular Engineering Automation. His major activities address new nanobiotechnology integration for interactive nanorobot instrumentation, which provide innovative devices solution for common medical use of nanorobots. He has also been working on several R&D projects related to autonomous systems, equipment prototyping and physically based simulation. Among other projects, the nanorobot inventor is also working on industrial manufacturing, publication of new books in Nanorobotics, and in the NCD - Nanorobot Control Design software commercialization.

 

Cavalcanti is a member of the editorial boards of Nanobiomedicine - InTech, Recent Patents on Nanotechnology - Bentham Science, and WIREs Nanomedicine and Nanobiotechnology - Wiley. He has been a reviewer for the IEEE Transactions on Automation Science and Engineering, and IEEE/ASME Transactions on Mechatronics, as well as a contributor on peer review processes of some other distinct journals. He joined IEEE in 2002 and also became an AAAS and ASME Member in 2007. In 2008, he was invited to become a contributor and reviewer of Nanomedicine: NBM - Elsevier. In 2009, he was invited to become a reviewer of Swiss National Science Foundation, providing technical assessment and recommendation for research funding on nanotechnology. Cavalcanti was also named a Senior Member of IEEE during the April 2013 Meeting.

 

The nanorobot genius’ work has an impact on current nanorobotics history, providing with the first nanorobot a legacy for coming generations.

 

Cavalcanti earned a BSc. in Computer Science (1st Hons) from Sao Paulo State University, a M.S. in Electrical Engineering focusing on automation and control from State University of Campinas, Brazil, and a Ph.D. in Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering with specialization in Biomedical Engineering from Monash University, Australia.
