Olivier Lambercy and Christoph Kanzler are hosting a Special Session on “Digital Biomarkers for Monitoring and Predicting Upper Limb Recovery After Stroke” at the IEEE BHI-BSN virtual conference with a fantastic line-up of world-renowned speakers (Thursday, 29.7, 4.10pm-5.10pm CET).  

Welcome to Natalie Tanczak who joined us for a PhD. Natalie began her PhD studies at ETH-​Zürich in June 2021 as part of the Future Health Technologies (FHT) laboratory, located at the Singapore-​ETH Centre (SEC). Her research focuses on the clinical evaluation of assistive technologies through a user-​centred design approach. She is particularly interested in developing and improving a wearable robotic hand exoskeleton for post-​stroke neurorehabilition.

Welcome to Christian Patience who joined us for a PhD. Christian started his PhD studies at ETH-​Zürich in June 2021 as part of the Future Health Technologies (FHT) laboratory, located at the Singapore-​ETH Centre (SEC). His research focuses on developing and validating robotic technologies for minimally-​supervised therapy of post-​stroke upper limb impairments. He is particularly interested in implementing advanced control methods supporting physical human-​robot interaction.

The EduExo Pro aims to make exoskeleton technology available to students, makers, and hobbyists and make it easier for educators to integrate wearable exoskeleton technology into the classroom. The kit contains all the parts needed to assemble an arm exoskeleton.
