Hello,

I am a second-year student at Harvard Business School, currently working to commercialize a promising new technology which may help to improve the quality of life for mobility-impaired patients by improving the ease with which these individuals can interact with their environment. This technology, while early stage, has the potential to significantly increase the ease and accuracy of how patients interact with a computer, and by extension, with their environment.

I am hoping to interview people who understand the needs of mobility-impaired patients first-hand. My hope is that these interviews will help us focus the development of this technology to better meet the needs of patients. As one of the most visible and active forums for spinal cord injury peer support, we are particularly interested in speaking with someone in the Apparelyzed community. Since this technology would most benefit the most severely-injured patients, we are hoping to interview quadriplegic patients and / or their families.

Would you or a family member be willing to participate in an hour-long interview, either in person (if you are located in the New England area) or by phone? We are hoping to schedule these interviews for a time during the weeks of 10/22/07 or 10/29/07.

Please post below or email me by 10/19/07 if you can help.

Thank you in advance for any help you can offer!
