The UroMonitor Takes Monitoring Out of the Clinic
18 Dec 2019
Created and developed by researchers in the Department of Biomedical Engineering, a wireless, insertable pressure sensor to assist in the diagnosis of urinary incontinence is now one step closer to clinical application. The team is actively recruiting patients for a trial that will begin in early 2020. “Our vision is to take the monitoring out of the clinic, and to take the catheter out of the monitoring,” said Margot Damaser, PhD, who created and oversees development of the UroMonitor. Dr. Damaser likens the device to a Fitbit for the bladder. Read more...

A mind-controlled robot arm doesn’t have to mean brain implants
22 Jul 2019
A robotic arm smoothly traces the movements of a cursor on a computer screen, controlled by the brain activity of a person sitting close by who stares straight ahead. The person wears a cap covered in electrodes. This "mind-controlled" robot limb is being manipulated by a brain-computer interface (BCI), which provides a direct link between the neural information of a brain that's wired to an electroencephalography (EEG) device and an external object. Paul Marasco, associate staff at Cleveland Clinic's Lerner Research Institute, told Engadget that this kind of technology could be life-changing for people who primarily use wheelchairs to move from place to place.
