NIH-NSF support for medical robotics
The winners of the 2011 joint NIH-NSF robotics initiative grant were announced back in September. There have been a great many projects focusing on medical applications, it's time to take a second look on them. (The complete list is here.)
- Collaborative Research: Multilateral Manipulation by Human-Robot Collaborative Systems See more details here.
- Core Technologies for MRI-powered Robots
- Advanced Biophotonics for Image-guided Robotic Surgery
- Multi-modal sensor skin and garments for healthcare and home robots
- Robot Assistants for Promoting Crawling and Walking in Children at Risk of Cerebral Palsy
- Robot Movement for Patient Improvement - Therapeutic Rehabilitation for Children with Disabilities
- Robotic Treadmill Therapy for Lower Spinal Cord Injuries (see our prior post)
