A New Minimally Invasive Approach to Spinal Cord Injury
Spinal cord injury affects 17,000 Americans and 700,000 people worldwide each year. Prognoses are often tragic and social costs exceed $2 million (U.S. and EU) in the first five years of
care. A research team at NeuroPair, Inc. won the Grand Prize in the 2023 Create the Future Design Contest for a revolutionary approach to spinal cord repair. Dr. Yohannes Dapprich, NeuroPair’s CEO and founder, discusses their groundbreaking approach that addresses a critical need in the medical field, offering a fast
and minimally invasive solution to a long-standing problem.
This is the last episode of Here’s an Idea. We will be back with a brand-new podcast series in 2024.

Human Factors in Drug Delivery
Patients are more likely to adhere to their treatment plans when drug-delivery devices are user-friendly. So, what can device developers do to ensure safety but also provide a positive user experience? Using human factors engineering, developers can design features to prevent errors and contribute to the successful use of the device.
On this episode of Here's an Idea™, talking Jeff Morang, Director of
Human Factors Engineering at BlackHägen Design, explains what designers need to know about human factors for combination
devices.

Powerful Sensors for the Eye
Advances in integrated microelectronics have enabled a revolution in ever smaller and more powerful medical sensors. One such use is for detecting pressure in the eye. InjectSense has invented an implantable sensor that detects direct dynamic pressure in the eye and transmits high-fidelity data from inside the eye of a patient to their physician.
On this episode of Here's an Idea™, Ariel Cao, founder and CEO of
InjectSense and Dave Fromm, chief operating officer and vice president of engineering at Promex, discuss this powerful sensor and how they are bringing it to market.
