For millions of people in the United States, being attached to a kidney dialysis machine for hours on end, multiple times per week is reality. Researchers working to restore some normalcy for kidney dialysis patients, by developing a wearable system that would give them freedom of movement, are encouraged by a new finding about a material that could vastly reduce the size of the blood filtration system.

Medical device startup picks MXene filter materials for artificial kidney
Nephria Bio plans to use Drexel’s MXene filter materials in its wearable artificial kidney technology.
Drexel University’s MXene material is one step closer to transforming the lives of people suffering from end-stage kidney disease. Nephria Bio Inc., a U.S.-based spin-off of the South Korean medical device company EOFlow Co. Ltd., has signed a licensing agreement with the University to use the two-dimensional material, discovered at Drexel, as a filter in a wearable artificial kidney d

Ankle exoskeleton enables faster walking
The exoskeleton is externally powered by motors and controlled by an algorithm, and when optimized for speed, participants walked, on average, 42% faster.
Being unable to walk quickly can be frustrating and problematic, but it’s a common issue, especially as people age. Noting the pervasiveness of slower-than-desired walking, engineers at Stanford University have tested how well a prototype exoskeleton system they have developed – which attaches around the shin and into a running shoe – increased the self-selected walking speed of people in an experimental setting.
The exoskeleton is externally powered by motors and controlled by an algorithm. When the researchers optimized it for speed, participants walked, on average, 42% faster than when they were wearing normal shoes and no exoskeleton. The results of this study were published April 20 in
