Bionic ETF

Harnessing Biology to Enhance Human Life

Bionics is biology-inspired engineering. It applies concepts and systems found in nature to the design of advanced medical devices. Companies in this area make devices including artificial heart valves, insulin pumps, pacemakers and joint replacements. Technological advances are improving the capabilities of these devices and promise to make far more possible. Think of brain chips that cure deafness, bioprinting that regenerates joints or exoskeletons that restore mobility.

Brain stimulation for Parkinson’s, neuroprosthetics for hearing, to brain activity monitoring to diagnose diseases.

Neuroprosthetics for sight, deep brain stimulation for Alzheimer’s, depression, and anxiety, to neuro priming for athletic performance.

From neuroergonomics to improve workplace design (e.g., reduce stress levels in the cockpit); to direct brain-to-device communication for paralyzed people.

From interpreting emotions through measured brain waves and enhancing sensory perception for consumer use to leveraging computers to augment the brain.
