OLLI 20th Celebration Speakers’ Series –
Wearable Robotics: Improving the Quality of Life for People with Disabilities
8/15/13, Wilson Hall Auditorium 001, UAHuntsville | 4:00 – 5:30 p.m.

Join OLLI at UAH for our 20th Celebration Speakers’s Series. Until recently, “wearable robots” were only the subject of science fiction. Modern technological advances are providing amazing real-world innovations in the area of rehabilitation robotics for people with physical disabilities. Join OLLI for an educational discussion on the latest developments of robotic limbs for extremity amputees and the development of exoskeletons for individuals with spinal cord injury and stroke. Dr. Michael Goldfarb, director of the Center for Intelligent Mechatronics at Vanderbilt University, has dedicated his career to the development of intelligent assistive devices for people with physical disabilities. He has also been featured in a Tennessee PBS series on current day Explorers. For more info phone 256.824.6183 or visit http://www.PCS.uah.edu/OLLISeries.
