Wow, i am blogging after more than 10 days.
Let me recall what i did over the past 10 days
1. Met Dr Mohan (from Surgery) to ask about the arm physiology. He was kind enuf to explain in nutshell about the flexor and extensor muscles, their correspoding nerves, and how they coordinate. Ni Jun was also present in this meeting.
2. Met Dr Sanjiv (Stroke specialist, NUH), he explained everything ranging from how paralysis starts, different kind of plegia, what happens in brain, spinal cord, what physiology is affected due to paralysis,...He was willing to give a ppt to the whole group (after i requested). But unfortuntely, he is going home from Deepavali, so have to wait till he comes back.
3. Spent a few hours daily in med library searching for relevant info on upper limb physiology.
4. Met the group on friday (23rd)to update each other, and decide on how to present for the 3rd meeting with Prof Yu. Everone recommended me to give the introduction. So i guess i will introduce the system, need for the system, and current technology in the market; Also i think will give an overview of the different components of the system. I have to do the conclusion as well.
Today, i meet Lei Yang in the canteen, discussed about PBL. We came up with a name for our system - ImagineMove. I would credit both Lei Yang and myself for this name. Hope others like it.
I am yet to finalize my slides for the wednesday meeting. Tonite is the submission deadline. Oh boy, this PBL is taking too much of my time, have a paper to submit for the conference, have no idea how i am gonna manage time.
