EP57 2018 Healthcare Makerthon Winner: Upright with Nicole Parada - a podcast by NYU School of Global Public Health

In this episode we talk to MPH student Nicole Parada, who joined an multidisciplinary team of NYU students at the 2018 Healthcare Makerthon. Their concept “Upright” focused on developing a biometric shoe sole for older adults, designed to detect early fall signs indicators by monitoring gait. Nicole will tell us about her winning team, her experience at the Makerthon and the exciting ways that Public Health and entrepreneurship intersect at NYU.
