Engineers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology last week said they have developed a telerobotic system to help surgeons quickly and remotely treat patients experiencing a stroke or aneurysm. With a modified joystick, surgeons in one hospital may control a robotic arm at another location to safely operate on a patient during a critical window of time that could save the patient's life and preserve their brain function. The robotic system, whose movement is controlled through magnets, is designed to remotely assist in endovascular intervention—a procedure performed in emergency situations to treat strokes caused by a blood clot. Such interventions…

…U.S. Air Force. Founded in 2011 by graduates of Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and the Rhode Island School of Design, RISE Robotics is backed by The Engine, a Tough Tech venture capital fund built by MIT, Greentown Labs, and Techstars. Adversarial advances in combat capabilities have prompted the U.S. Air Force to pursue a strategy focused on launching, recovering, and maintaining aircraft from dispersed forward operating locations, according to the Somerville, Mass.-based company. Rather than relying on large overseas bases to project international power, agile combat employment (ACE) uses networks of austere air bases, multi-capable airmen, pre-positioned equipment, and…
