People with hand amputations experience difficult daily life challenges, often leading to lifelong use of a prosthetic hand and services. An electronic glove, or e-glove, developed by Purdue researchers can be worn over a prosthetic hand to provide humanlike softness, warmth, appearance and sensory perception, such as the ability to sense pressure, temperature and hydration.

A traumatic brain injury is often easily suspected and can be confirmed and treated if necessary following an injury using a blood analysis, but scientists are reporting that even one mild blast to the brain can cause very subtle but permanent damage as well. Purdue research now shows that urine analysis taken within one week of a mild to traumatic brain injury can provide faster diagnosis and treatment for such injuries.
