An uncomfortable and poor-fitting prosthetic socket can lead to pain, rashes, and even infection, causing more trips to the hospital. Part of the reason why this is the case is because an amputee’s residual limb (the part that fits into the socket) fluctuates in volume throughout the day. The majority of current sockets are rigid, with a few adjustable options which are tedious for the user. Embrace Medical aims to solve this issue by creating an automatically adjustable prosthetic to create a better fit for prosthetic leg users.Co-HiveBrown University2024-09-13 | Co-Hive offers convenient, low-cost rentals of tech devices like vacuum robots at local sharing stations.

Simmons Center for the Study of Slavery & Justice’s Race, Medicine, and Social Justice Research Cluster,” took place on Saturday, May 27, 2023.
The Covid-19 pandemic’s devastating impact on Black people in the US revealed many layers of societal inequities, notably in medicine, yet the crisis of anti-Black racism continues unabated. Debates over genomics research on race, racialized algorithms, high maternal mortality of Black women, profit, and myriad social movements contesting racism in medicine have been especially contentious. Learn about the work of an interdisciplinary group of scholars from across Brown who, over the past six years, have been interrogating how power and knowledge-making practices in these arenas operate to produce and re-produce racism, oftentimes invisibly.
