Georgia Bio, the state’s life science trade association, named GCMI, the Saldana Research Group and Georgia Tech 2021 Golden Helix Innovation Award recipients. The Innovation Award recognizes the department, institution, company or individuals who are forging new ground by thinking outside traditional paradigms to create some unique technology. In early 2020, U.S. frontline healthcare…
GCMI is proud to announce our Interim CEO, Sherry Farrugia, has been named to the Board of Directors for Medical University of South Carolina Foundation for Research Development (MUSC FRD). “MUSC FRD is pleased to welcome Sherry to the board,” stated Michael Rusnak FRD’s Executive Director of the Board. “Sherry brings over 30 years’…
In the context of GCMI’s phase-gated product development, the “Design and Development” phase (also called “Phase 2” at GCMI) typically follows a Project Planning phase (called “Phase 1” at GCMI). At the completion of project planning, innovators have determined what work is required to take the technology from prototype to product. The Design and Development…
There are approximately 292,000 cases of in-hospital cardiac arrest every year for which the survival rate is less than 24 percent. Resuscitative efforts and supporting technologies are ineffective, slow, fatiguing, traumatic and expensive. As their Fall 2020 Capstone Project, a group of students from the Georgia Tech Schools of Biomedical, Electrical and Mechanical Engineering…
How can medtech, life science and biopharma innovators know their product is ready for preclinical testing? GCMI Design and Development Director Mike Fisher and Preclinical Program Director Evan Goldberg joined Renovo Biomedical’s Anna Fallon on January 14, 2021 to answer that question.
Where does preclinical work find its way into project planning for new medical technologies? What are the top considerations for preclinical work in this early development stage? GCMI Preclinical Program Director Evan Goldberg shares his insights.
Georgia Tech recently completed its Fall 2020 (virtual) Capstone Design Expo. From the project’s website, “The Capstone Design Expo showcases Georgia Tech’s graduating seniors as they present their innovative projects designed and built during the Capstone Design Course.

Last month, Georgia Tech named Raghupathy “Siva” Sivakumar inaugural Interim Chief Commercialization Officer. From Georgia Tech Research Horizons: “Sivakumar will bring together commercialization and technology transfer activities from across campus with a goal of moving more intellectual property out into the marketplace to help expand Georgia Tech’s impact on the world. Attaining that goal…
How does medtech design verification and validation “translate” to preclinical testing? GCMI’s Director of Scientific Affairs explains.
Preclinical evaluations are often the best way to assess a medical product’s performance, and regulatory bodies often require preclinical data in product submissions. But this type of work is also expensive. The most effective product development strategies use preclinical studies wisely. The most expensive preclinical study is the one you have to repeat. How…
