ADVANCES IN THERAPEUTIC SCOPE FOR MEDICAL BIOSENSORS
OPENING ADDRESS
Medical-Grade Wearables and Continuous Remote Monitoring from In-Hospital to Home
Speaker: James Mault, MD, Founder and CEO, BioIntelliSense, Inc.
Designing Wearables for Real-Time Clinical Thinking Algorithms
* In digital therapeutic devices, there are a class of products whose clinical responses are delivered synchronously to the patient
based on real-time inputs from biosensors. These devices differ from wearables that track biomarkers and activities on daily
hourly or daily basis.
* Real-time wearables don't have the luxury of post-processing entire data sets. Hardware and algorithm design must accommodate
the constraints of data processing with low-latency and high reliability requirements, using machine learning and
other techniques early in the data acquisition pipeline.
* Wireless biosensors are preferred, so edge processing algorithms on the biosensor hardware reduces data transmission and
conserves battery life.
* This presentation will discuss design strategies that balance the competing requirements of real-time medical wearables.
Speaker: Eric Richardson, Vice President of Applied Research, MedRhythms, Inc.

Networking Lunch
Wearable Device Integration of Neurophysiological Diagnostic and Therapeutic Capabilities
* Assessing the utility of noninvasive wearable sensors to classify and quantify impairments to multiple neurophysiological
systems
* Assessing the utility of noninvasive neurostimulation techniques to counteract neurophysiological disruptions caused by aging,
injuries, or disease
* Addressing challenges in the design, prototyping, and manufacturing of devices that integrate the above diagnostic and
therapeutic capabilities into an unobtrusive wearable form factor
* Applications to a growing range of neurological conditions, including concussions, vestibular disorders, Parkinson's
disease, stroke, multiple sclerosis, peripheral neuropathies, and invasive neurosurgeries
Speaker: John Ralston, CEO and Founder, Neursantys, Inc.
2:40 PM
Assessing Accuracy, Reliability, and Usability of In-Ear Vital Signs Monitoring
