Galen is developing a single-platform solution to aid surgeons across several disciplines with minimal disturbance to existing workflows. Our cooperative control paradigm aims to provide enhanced control and enable surgeons to realize precise minimally invasive interventions in otolaryngology, spine surgery, and tissue reconstruction.

Galen Robotics was founded in 2016 to commercialize the research done in the Laboratory of Computational Sensing and Robotics of Johns Hopkins University. Dr. Kevin Olds and Dr. Russell Taylor invented the Robotic ENT Microsurgical System (REMS) at JHU to expand the surgical population by improving ergonomics and tool stability during narrow corridor procedures found in manu surgical settings.
