...cases, they have tripled and quadrupled work time. Now, the researchers are working on the final design for a manufacturable prototype while continuing research on the cognitive effects of overheating....
...smaller than for adults and the return on investment for device developers is lower. Small body size and physiologic differences between children and adults create unique design considerations. Because they're...
When Vic McCray, MD, and I were Stanford Biodesign Innovation Fellows, we spent months shadowing optometrists and ophthalmologists, looking at different eye problems and diseases. But what we saw over...
One Sunday last month, more than 60 patients, students, medical professionals and design thinkers gathered on the Stanford campus to brainstorm ideas for gadgets and services tailored to the unique...
In the labs of five Stanford researchers, the subtleties of sound come to the aid of science, making critical -- and sometimes unlikely -- contributions to new technologies, medical applications...
Last week, 13 student-developed medical devices and diagnostics were on display at Stanford Byers Center for Biodesign’s second annual Health Technology Showcase. The projects addressed a wide range of health...
...tissue using this rich chemical information. It's always fun to write about research projects in which vastly different disciplines come together to design something new to help patients. The DESI-MSI...
