Dr. Ronghuai Qi is an Assistant Professor in Dynamics, Control, and Robotics at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas (UNLV). Prior to joining UNLV, he was a Postdoctoral Fellow (Advisor: Prof. Jaydev P. Desai) in the Medical Robotics and Automation (RoboMed) Laboratory at the Georgia Institute of Technology, Atlanta, GA. He earned his Ph.D. (Advisors: Prof. Amir Khajepour and Prof. William Melek) in Mechanical and Mechatronics Engineering, with a focus on robotics and control, from the University of Waterloo (UW), ON, Canada, in 2019. Dr. Qi has 15+ years of hands-on experience in both academia and industry in the design, modeling, and control of multi-scale robots and complex mechatronic systems. His interdisciplinary works have been published in highly prestigious journals and conferences, such as Nature-npj Robotics, T-RO, IEEE Trans. Syst. Man Cybern. Syst., Control Eng. Pract., Rob. Auton. Syst., T-MRB, R-AL, ICRA, and IROS. Dr. Qi serves as an Associate Editor of IEEE Robotics and Automation Letters and Associate Editor of IROS 2026, was a Session Co-Chair of IROS 2023, and has received various awards, such as the Best Application Paper Award at CableCon 2023 and Best Poster Award at the ICRA 2025 Workshop. He also served as a National Institutes of Health (NIH) IGIS Panel Member (2025) and an external reviewer for Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC) Discovery Grant (2024). Dr. Qi is a member of IEEE and ASME. His research interests include robotics, novel mechatronic systems design, robot-assisted surgery and rehabilitation, safe human–robot interaction, modeling, control, shape sensing, and image-guided interventions.
