Our MSNO Winter Meeting 2017 will go to Cleveland FES Center.
The event will combine professional networking, lectures on by leading expert, guided tours & demos at the impressive FES Center, exhibitions by leading vendors in the field, a nice dinner. Here are some of the highlights:
- Two main talks on The application of Functional Electrical Stimulation to restore joint motion in individuals with Spinal Cord Injury and other movement disorders (Jim Uhlir,Operations Manager of Cleveland FES Center, CWRU Biomedical Engineering Dept.) and Vincent S. Smentkoski (a National MAS tour speaker) will give a talk on Surface Microscopy and Microanalysis in an Industrial Research and Development Laboratory: General Electric Global Research Center.
- Tour at the FES Center.
Looking forward to seeing you at CWRU!

Here is a brief introduction to FES Center.
The Cleveland FES Center’s Technical Development Laboratory (TDL) designs and fabricates implantable medical devices that are intended for use in human feasibility studies conducted under several Investigational Device Exemptions (IDEs). In 1991, the TDL was established to facilitate the design and development of implantable hardware required for clinical studies conducted within the Cleveland FES Center. The TDL is part of the network of CWRU core centers that provides state-of-the-art services for the multi-disciplinary research institutes outlined in the University’s Strategic Plan. To fully realize this vision, TDL works to meet the needs of researchers in the Biomedical and Electrical Engineering Departments (BME, EECS), and the Case School of Medicine (SOM).
Since 1991, the TDL has been a resource core for the local FES community that provided design, development, fabrication, and testing of implantable and external systems, biomedical instrumentation, and software solutions (embedded and applications). The TDL staff consists of seven full-time employees and includes biomedical engineers, computer engineers, electrical engineers, a physicist, and several technicians. These seven employees have over 150 years of combined experience in the design, development and clinical deployment of implantable technologies for human research. The TDL provides a resource core for design, development, fabrication, and testing of implantable and external systems, instrumentation, and software. Technical capabilities include system integration, electronics design, multi-level software design, mechanical design, material science, and project management. The TDL facilities include the cleanroom, micro-fabrication lab, machine shop, electronics lab, embedded systems lab, computer lab, and staff office cubicles. The Technical Development Laboratory (TDL) designs and fabricates all technologies for use in all clinical studies performed within the Center.
