The Little Devices group explores the design, invention, and policy spaces for DIY health technologies around the world. We believe everyone can make health.
Do you have an idea for new health technology that could keep more patients safe?
It's Patient Safety Awareness Week!
We're raising awareness about the #healthcare providers who create new health devices to prevent harm in #patientcare.
We have lost Paul far too soon. Paul was our compass, on a dual mission to promote health and equity.
Paul created proximity to listen and heal. I miss his
warmth and friendship.
May we all do justice to his memory.

Congrats to @DrKlapperich and team on this in-depth study of Boston University's control measures to keep the virus off campus (h/t @eliowa). Out of 500,000+ tests, no transmission was traced to a classroom setting.

Two +ve reviews for our article "There is No Market for #Antibiotics..." https://t.co/cjXzKQpx11 so we're no longer "awaiting peer review". Thank you for insightful comments Terry Roemer from Prokaryotics and Richard Alm of @CARB_X#OpenScience#Economics#globalhealth
We put the power of creation directly in your hands. With MakerHealth’s multiple programs, you can become a maker no matter where you are. Do you have an idea that could help the medical landscape? Turn it into a reality.
Congrats to two of our many superstar undergrads, @daenaaleeza and Lauren Castle!!! Electrochemical Sensors to Detect Bacterial Foodborne Pathogens https://t.co/b18yNnpvdV @FurstLab
Happy #NursesWeek from @MakerHealthCo! We celebrate nurses all over the world who have dedicated their work to saving lives and providing care through pandemics, natural disasters, and in everyday life.

#Nurses rise to the occasion, breaking boundaries & harnessing the power of creation to solve challenges in patient care. We love Clara Noyes timeless words in her intro to Lyla Olson’s book. Tag a nursing student and let us know how you think nursing schools can health make!
The rise of the nanotechnology powered diagnostic middleware workers creating design-for-hack solutions.
@KHamadLab and I wrote in @naturenano on dx protocols > devices, antiblackbox design, and Feynman’s plenty of room at the bottom for global health https://t.co/dKi2Q6B7A0
This #WorldHealthDay, we're honoring an incredibly special doctor & #healthmaker: Dr. Awojobi Oluyombo, a trailblazer in low-tech, high-impact surgery in Eruwa, Nigeria, 100 miles north of Lagos. His work brought hundreds of thousands of patients across the country for care.
A year ago, walked into creepy empty lab, learned to pack the essentials as we moved lab into kitchen, sanitized shared bikes like a maniac, and began to help out Madrid #makernurses
