A Smartphone App Could Change How Stroke...
In assessing stroke patient rehabilitation, clinicians have largely relied on their eyes to measure how well a stroke patient can move, grasp and let go. But what if a pocket-sized tool could capture every motion, quantify progress and provide new insight — all in the time it takes to open an app?

UC Irvine Researchers Develop an ML-powered,...
Researchers at the University of California, Irvine have developed a multimodal, bioelectronic wrist-worn device for objective, continuous, real-time monitoring of stress. Outlined in a paper published in Nature Communications, the Smart Quantitative and Comprehensive Stress Assessor and Sub-Classifier simultaneously tracks molecular stress biomarkers alongside physiological stress indicators, providing a complete and precise picture of how stress is experienced by humans.
