🦾 I've learned a lot about tech transfer from university #biomechanics & #prosthetics research & as co-founder of an #exoskeleton company

🚨 Here's 1 of the first things you must understand if you're a student, postdoc or professor aiming to translate your tech out of the lab👇🏽

Challenge Accepted.

Actually, I'm going to make it an entire thread about the things that I love about being neurodivergent.

To those following along at home, please feel free to add your own as well :) (1/11)

RTs appreciated 🧡!

With #limblossawarenessmonth🥳🦿🦾 I'll talk about #sensoryfeedback #prosthetics & my PhD #socketsense research:

Everyone’s experience using prosthetics are unique. So, understanding the role of #socketsense + user experience across the #limblosslimbdifference community will help guide current research to restore leg sensation and improve amputee rehab.

Assistive Technology for self care often doesn't get the spotlight it deserves. These are crucial products people use to support a person's independence in daily life for activities like:
➡️ eating & drinking 🍽🥤
➡️ getting dressed 👕👖🧦
➡️ toileting 🚽🧻
