Welcome to POC-CENT
If you are new to the site please feel free to explore and learn more about the Point-of-Care Center for Emerging Neuro Technologies. If you are a member to the site, you may log in at the top right of the screen.
Point- of- Care Center for Emerging Neuro Technologies is focused on developing diagnostic technologies for NeuroEmergencies where information is needed by the physician quickly. The remit for the technologies to be developed is to advance point-of-care information and information flow for the neuro patient in the emergency room, neurosurgery suite, for neuro radiology and the neuro intensive care unit. Indeed anytime the physician requires rapid information from the neuro patient will be considered. This will include but not be limited to: blood tests, urinalysis, imaging, non-invasive sensors, spinal fluid, and biopsy / tissue samples.
There are 5 cores representing numerous disciplines to foster and facilitate taking ideas and applying them to clinical applications. These cores are:
- Clinical testing
- Exploratory Projects
- Clinical Needs Assessment
- Training
- Administration
Supporting these cores we have representatives from Neurology, Neurosurgery, Engineering, Entrepreneurial Development, The community, Industry and University Administration. A strength of the University of Cincinnati and the Cincinnati community is that we currently do all of these cores for our life sciences. We have multiple incubators for companies, strong clinical trials experience, a wealth of training and funding opportunities for all stages of technology development. Indeed there will be an opportunity to partner with other funding agencies locally to add value to the technologies that enter into our program.
Our team’s goal is to improve the care and health of the neuro patient by providing fast and reliable information about the biological events they are experiencing. We are fortunate to have an engineering, medical, scientific and commercial community that already works well together and can be facilitated to do all the aspects of this project as part of the Point-of-Care Center for Emerging Technology Development network.
POC-CENT provides funding opportunities to refine and develop point-of-care neurotechnology. POC-CENT also offers the advantage of shortening the typical process and development time by utilizing the connections inside both the medical and entrepreneurial community.
