Some of the most meaningful breakthroughs in medic Some of the most meaningful breakthroughs in medicine aren't about curing disease, but about helping people regain their independence. At a recent Mass General Brigham Life-Changing Research Town Hall, researchers showcased a wearable robotic device designed to help people living with ALS or stroke perform everyday tasks more easily. Developed with direct input from patients, the technology focuses on what matters most: helping people do more for themselves. "Before ALS, I could do 100 things by myself. Now, my lovely wife is my caregiver, and does about 95, and I do about five,” said a study participant with ALS. “Even if we can just get that up to six things, that makes a world of a difference for us both." Read the full story at the link in our bio. This project is a multidisciplinary-led effort between various departments across Mass General Brigham and Harvard Medical School, including researchers Sabrina Paganoni, Conor Walsh, David Lin, James Arnold, Prabhat Pathak, and more.
