"Designing Medical Devices Requires a Pound of Flesh"

A brief article in Wired online about the development of medical instruments features the work of Mary Beth Privitera of the University of Cincinnati:

"Privitera said designers could cut training time and anticipate problems by getting involved earlier in the medical design process. But to do that, they have to increase their knowledge of anatomy and physiology by working in the field with doctors."

Mary Beth also presented at last week's IDSA Connecting '07 conference.
