Closing the loop between wearable technology and human biology

  • Post author:

PoWeR Lab collaborator Dr. Massimo Sartori and PI Dr. Greg Sawicki are the authors of a new article currently in press entitled,  “Closing the loop between wearable technology and human biology: A new paradigm for steering neuromuscular form and function.” As opposed to simply trying to assist the body, they envision wearable robots and neuromodulation devices being used to steer a user’s physiology in different ways across timescales from seconds to years. This article will appear in the journal Progress in Biomedical Engineering.
