Overview
We have core expertise in basic and clinical neurophysiology, biomedical engineering and instrumentation, and information technology. Our research & development organization includes PhDs, physicians, and other scientists and engineers with extensive industry and academic experience. We believe that a multi-disciplinary approach leads to proprietary and unique solutions to complex and important neurological problems, primarily those affecting peripheral nerves.
We focus on the development of our intellectual property assets through regular filings of US and international patents, trademarks, and copyrights. In addition, we are committed to the dissemination of scientific and clinical information via peer reviewed publications and encourage our employees to publish their technical and medical research. We participate in professional conferences through submissions of abstracts, posters and oral presentations. Finally, we provide extensive support for federally funded research studies at leading academic institutions. These studies often provide collaborative research opportunities for our research team.
Significant research & development programs are presently ongoing at NeuroMetrix. We continue to develop new consumables and focus on improvements to and accessories for our existing products. In addition, our company is developing a system for regional anesthesia, pain control, and treatment of neuropathies, and a nerve stimulation based device to promote regeneration in acute peripheral nerve injuries. We are also in early stage development of devices for intra-operative peripheral nerve assessment and monitoring.
