Our lab is committed to advancing the prosthetics industry through clinical research and instrumentation development. This commitment requires successful clinical, commercial, and research collaborations. Clinical Partners Previous and current studies have led to clinical partnerships with clinics in Oklahoma, North Carolina, Illinois, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Ohio, San Francisco, and Alberta. Our clinical network allows us to expand our research beyond Seattle and the state of Washington, test the technologies we develop, and gather more insights to increase the clinical relevance of our work. We are continuously seeking to expand our clinical connections. If you are interested in discussing further how your prosthetic clinic may become involved in our research, please reach out to us using the “Contact Us” page on this website.Technology Transfer As research tools are developed in our lab, often our technology has commercial potential. We welcome the opportunity to work with commercial partners to develop our technology into a commercial product. If interested, please review our patents (at right) and read about our current and past projects. Licensing agreements may be arranged by CoMotion at the University of Washington.
