Portfolio

MRI Human Subject Research - Pablo Argote PhD Defense

MR-EPT for Early Disease Detection

I developed Magnetic Resonance Electrical Properties Tomography techniques for quantitative conductivity mapping in cartilage tissue. Early feasibility suggests this approach may help detect changes associated with degeneration prior to structural damage; further clinical validation is required.

Predictive Wear: Smart Compression Technology

Predictive Wear Medical Technology

I co-founded and led development of smart compression garments with integrated bioimpedance sensors to monitor tissue properties - such as water content related to peripheral edema - with exploratory applications including potential DVT detection and ulcer risk assessment. We secured US Patent 11,672,288, won a pitch competition, and advanced pre‑market prototyping; future clinical validation is required.

ExoMIND Glove

ExoMIND Rehabilitation Technology

I co-developed a wearable device for stroke rehabilitation that integrated EMG sensors, accelerometers, and conductive fabric electrodes. The system was designed to provide quantitative biofeedback for therapists and patients to support progress tracking and therapy optimization (prototype stage).
