About this event

The mR2A is a multifunctional robotic assistive arm developed at UWM with NIDILRR support for power-wheelchair users with limited upper-limb function. This symposium is part of a knowledge-translation project to move it from the laboratory into everyday use. We will share the research and evidence to date, hear from users, caregivers, clinicians and advocates about what real-world adoption takes, and work through the regulatory, commercialization and reimbursement pathways together.
