The Center for Bionic Medicine brings together an interdisciplinary team of engineers, clinicians, post-doctoral researchers, and graduate students who work together to solve pressing problems in rehabilitation engineering. 

In order to showcase our emerging research, we host a symposium every year to hear from our team members about their projects. Our 3rd Annual CBM Symposium was held on April 24, 2018. Some presentations included:

  • Stroke Effects on Ankle Mechanical Impedance During the Stance Phase of Walking, Amanda Shorter, BA
  • Amputee Perception of Prosthetic Ankle Stiffness During Locomotion, Max Shepherd, MS
  • Across Day Lower Limb Pattern Recognition Performance of a Powered Knee-Ankle Prosthesis, Emily Seyforth, BS
  • Generalizing Prosthesis – Derived Intent Recognition Strategies for Lower Limb Assistive Devices, Blair Hu, MS
  • Lightweight Lower Limb Prostheses, Tom Pickerill, MS
  • Detection of Falls and Parkinson’s Symptoms from Smartphones and Wearables Data, Luca Lonini, PhD
  • Monitoring Ectopic Beat Frequency Using High Resolution Wearable Sensing: A Pilot Study to Improving Safety in Individuals with Chronic Stroke, Chandra Jayaraman, PhD
  • Quantifying Community Mobility Using Smartphones, Megan O'Brien, PhD
  • Sensory Feedback for Prosthetic Arms, Eric Earley, MS
  • Virtual Training Environment to Improve Myoelectric Pattern Recognition, Richard Woodward, PhD
  • Targeted Muscle Reinnervation for Individuals with Transradial Amputation, Annie Simon, PhD

Thank you to everyone who attended!
