The Alfred Mann Foundation is a non-profit organization dedicated to developing and commercializing innovative solutions for significant unmet medical conditions.
At the Alfred Mann Foundation, we strive to find solutions for medical problems that often have few other treatments. In our non-profit environment, we are free to take on long-term, high-risk challenges as well as to develop technology that can benefit those who suffer from conditions that have smaller populations of patients and groups who may not receive the attention paid to higher-profile diseases or injuries. Our talented and diverse staff and our world-class research facility allow us to take development from the seed of an idea through prototyping and quality control all the way to manufacturing a device that can be used in a clinical trial. - See more at: http://aemf.org/our-research/current-focus/#sthash.YJRUq5ri.dpuf
