The Lunchbox Interview: Ali Husseini, Researcher at IBME

Posted on 2016-02-03 by encaf1 Posted in The Lunchbox

LunchBoxIBMEThere are two prominent images of artificial limbs: one, the pincer claw, is barely above the classic pirate hook; the other, the fully articulated cyber-mechanical arm, such as what the Terminator carries under his fake skin.

The truth is somewhere in between..

I spoke with Ali Husseini, a research assistant at the Atlantic Clinic for Upper Limb Prosthetics at the Institute for Biomedical Engineering from UNB Fredericton. We talked about the reality of prosthetics, the great role the clinic plays at both the local and national level, and the kind of inter-disciplinary research that goes on at the Institute.

(The Institute is always looking for volunteers to help with studies — both those who are in need or use prosthetics as well as those with normal limb operation — to help better understand how the human body moves. Listen for calls for research looking for assistance on The Lunchbox.)
