A new treatment for Migraine headaches is now available in the UK and
will soon be approved in the US. The Spring TMS device (eNeura.com)
delivers a 1 tesla magnetic pulse in 180 ms 2 cm into the base of the
brain resetting it and curing Migraine Headache without drugs and with
no side effects whatsoever. See attached Lancet article. The current
device is somewhat large and heavy. A more ergonomic shape needs to be
prototyped (perhaps 3 different shapes) to be Market tested with exiting
Spring TMS patients in England. The best shape would then be made into
a fully functional prototype in the spring of 2014 including if possible
data communication with a central server. A more detailed description
with some early shape concepts will be available by Sept 5. The student
team for this should include at least one student with 3D CAD experience
and one student with circuit board layout and prototyping experience.
The company will fly the team to London for the patient shape survey.
The final prototype and report will provide the input for the eNeura's
next generation device.
