BU Research Blog

We are looking for BU staff and students to help us test the accuracy and reliability of the newly developed NERVE device.  Designed to monitor loss of sensation in the hands and feet, it is hoped that this device will eventually be used by patients in their own homes. Our research study will compare the accuracy and reliability of the NERVE device to a device currently used in clinical settings.

So as long as you’re over the age of 18, have 10 minutes to spare and don’t have overly ticklish feet, we need you! All you need to do is lie down and tell us at what point you feel a vibration on the finger, big toe, and possibly the ankle and knee.

For more information please contact Emma Frampton (eframpton@bournemouth.ac.uk) and arrange a time suitable for you!
