Research to develop a pediatric exoskeleton, led by Dr. Jerzy Sawicki, Vice President for Research and a professor in the Department of Mechanical Engineering, and Dr. Dan Simon, a professor in the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science (EECS), is the focus of this month’s Featured Research Video.

Dr. Berdis’s research focuses on developing better treatments for brain cancer, the deadliest of all cancers. His group’s development of an improvement to an FDA-approved drug used to treat brain cancer was featured on News 5 Cleveland in January, and his team is currently performing in-depth safety studies on this compound in order to pursue a Phase I clinical trial within the next two years.
