I love it Alisa!

Have you met Miriam Madsen out of UMASS Medical School? She's working on a project to address the issue you mentioned (she's advised by Dan Bacher).

Hope all is well!

Colleagues,

 

Regarding assistive technology devices – what do you feel is needed but NOT available right now for people with ALS?  It might be something simple or complex but I’d like to start a dialogue of what we in the field think is missing.

 

I’ll start off – an easy to use and set up call bell system for someone that just has eye movement left. 

 

Your thoughts???
