  2. Overview of Course/Program Biodesign Centers at - All India Institute of Medical Sciences (Delhi) - Biopolis (Singapore) AIIMS Biopolis

  3. Overview of Course/Program • National search for 4 fellows/country each year • 6 mos. @ Stanford, then home for identify/invent/implement sequence • Fellows nucleate course/internship in country

  4. Features of Course/Program Core philosophy: • Identify and help train emerging medtech innovators in country

  5. 08 09 10 11

  6. Features of Course/Program Core philosophy: Identify and help train emerging medtech innovators in country Facilitate interaction between global and US fellows and students

  7. Features of Course/Program Core philosophy: Identify and help train emerging medtech innovators in country Facilitate interaction between global and US fellows and students Test assumption that basic biodesign process translates to advanced developing economy

  8. The need: A less expensive approach for limb immobilization (splint) during ambulance transport Cost of existing splints = $100-200

  9. The concept: disposable splint

  10. Manufacturing in Delhi box factory Cost per unit estimate: 8 cents

  11. Phase-2 Trial at AIIMS* Femoral fracture During X-Ray Tibial fracture *All India Institute of Medical Sciences

  12. Trying hard to commercialize… YearProjectStatus • 08 Fecal Incontinence (COSAT) • Intraosseus Infusion (COSAT) • 09 Limb Immobilization0* • Neonatal hearing 0 • 11 Still inventing 0 *total cost of project to date = $3000

  13. Features of Course/Program Lessons learned: • Good need, concept and market not enough to translate • Mentorship of in-country phase is challenging • Progress depends on relationships, communication, time in country.
