A critical stream of our research is focused on developing user-centered, optimized prosthetic and orthotic technology to enhance function and quality of life of assistive device users. This technology includes upper and lower limb prostheses to enhance mobility, wearable devices to track health outcomes, and novel socket suspension devices to facilitate residual limb health and strength of socket interface coupling.
