✨ Thrilled to share that our research has been featured on the front cover of the June issue of IEEE Transactions on Biomedical Engineering (TBME)!
In this study, we developed a novel electromagnetic tracking system (EMT) based on quasi-static magnetic fields for accurate localization of deep brain stimulation (DBS) electrodes during surgery. By leveraging miniaturized sensors and advanced field generators, our system enables millimetric spatial resolution and precise angular tracking, offering real-time guidance for neurosurgeons.The…

🚀 Spotlight on the Kokoro Project!
We are excited to share that the Kokoro Project♥️, an interdisciplinary initiative funded by the Swiss Nanoscience Institute (SNI), University of Basel, was featured on Millevoci, a radio program by Radiotelevisione svizzera (RSI)!🔬 Prof. Anna Marsano provided fascinating insights into the project’s innovative approach, bridging nanoscience, biomedical engineering, technology, and…
🚀 DrainSense – a project by the Institute of Medical Technology and Medical Informatics at FHNW Muttenz
Anastomotic leaks (AL) are a serious complication in abdominal surgeries – they affect 10-20% of the 14 million procedures performed worldwide each year. The DrainSense project is developing a bio-inspired sensor array that detects these leaks early, improving diagnosis.🎯 Our goal: more accurate AL diagnosis, fewer complications, lower healthcare costs,…
