More than 50 million people in the United States have some form of hearing loss. The intricate science around improving hearing is advancing at a rapid pace with the help of innovative researchers like Jack Noble, assistant professor of electrical and computer engineering. On this episode of the Quantum Potential podcast,… Read More

Jack Noble always admired his father’s work as a family practice physician, particularly the simple aspect of helping people. It’s a sentiment the Vanderbilt engineer has carried over into his own work of developing innovative technology that aims to not only improve patients’ hearing, but also assist… Read More

A Vanderbilt engineering professor is working with clinical colleagues to develop and validate an augmented reality (AR) vision guidance system to help surgeons place cochlear implants more precisely. The guidance system leverages emerging artificial intelligence (AI) technology and uses inexpensive, commonly available equipment, making it practical for many operating rooms. Read More

  Members of six VISE labs affiliated with the Vanderbilt Institute for Surgery and Engineering (VISE) traveled to Vancouver to take part in the 26th International Conference on Medical Image Computing and Computer-Assisted Intervention.
