thymia secures $2.7m to further develop its pioneering monitoring and assessment tech
A new collaborative study is working on developing an assistive device based on artificial intelligence that will help with rehabilitation post-stroke. Recently, a team of researchers showcased BiomacVR, an innovation that aims to assist stroke survivors get back on their feet as quickly as possible. Shortly afterwards, a third component of this technology was developed: BiomacEMG. According [...]

Study shows significant increase in ability to recall words
A recently developed artificial intelligence (AI) tool has shown to accurately count brain lesions on MRI scans within seconds, once it is adapted to the clinic. It is believed that the AI tool should help neuroradiologists to evaluate patients’ brain diseases at earlier stages. This AI tool was developed at the University of Texas Health [...]
Backed by £1.6m from The Brain Tumour Charity, the project brings together latest research and tech approaches
Of all the products that assist people with a disability, wheelchairs seem to cause the most difficulty and confusion. There are so many options and variations that many people finish up with something that doesn't serve them all that well. There are at least two basic topics to think about - the overlapping demands of [...]

New research has shown how novel soft robotics can help recovering stroke survivors to relearn playing music and other skills that require dexterity and coordination. Previous research has shown that music therapy can help stroke survivors to recover language and motor function, however, for those trained in music pre-stroke they may need to relearn this [...]
