uPATCH Applicators and University of Waterloo collaborate on Microneedle patch based monitoring and treatment technologies

Innovation and collaboration are key driving principles at   uPATCH  Applicators .  So, to “practice what we preach , ”  we connect with academic institutions around the world that share our common interests in microneedle technology.   

As part of this philosophy, we started a collaboration last year with the  UniversityofWaterloo , a Canada-based, globally recognized research-intensive organization renowned for entrepreneurship and innovation.   

We are working together with  MahlaPoudineh , Associate Professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer  Engineering  and Director of the  IdeationLab .   They focus on developing polymeric microneedle array patches (MAPs) for minimally invasive monitoring and treatment in outpatient settings, while we complement their  expertise  as domain experts in microneedle applicators for biosensing.   

Together we are working on several interesting projects and hope to be able to share some results in the (near) future.
