This $416,638 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation's Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) establishes a 3-year Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) site at the University of Central Florida (UCF) focused on research experiences in pediatric prosthetics. The REU site will engage 10 students per year in an interdisciplinary research program exploring the use of bio-sensing and Internet of Things technologies for personalized pediatric prosthetics. Students will participate in workshops on AI/ML for healthcare and human gross anatomy, and have opportunities for professional development and graduate school preparation. The award aims to prepare undergraduates for industry and graduate school placement in fields related to pediatric prosthetics, robotics, biomechanics, and human-machine interfaces.
