On 12 November 2024, Dr. Joris Pascal’s team from the Hochschule für Life Sciences FHNW in Muttenz, Switzerland, had the honour of welcoming an Interreg Upper Rhine committee, in the presence of Ms Delia Bonsignore, European Commission referent.

The visit was an opportunity for Dr Pascal to share the latest significant advances in the HelpMeWalk project.

During the meeting, a live demonstration of an early prototype was given, highlighting the promising results achieved through collaboration within the consortium, and the contribution of BellwadTEC, an associate partner in the project.
The presentation provided a concrete demonstration of the innovations developed as part of our research, with the aim of creating an intelligent bandage that will enable digital measurements to be taken, in order to produce personalised orthoses more efficiently and thus help people suffering from orthopaedic disorders.
