Bill Wright, who most recently led SynDaver’s European operations, has assumed global responsibilities previously managed by SynDaver CEO, Dr. Christopher Sakezles. This leadership change will enable Sakezles to be wholly focused on SynDaver’s new research and development operations under sister company, SynDaverX.
WATERLOO, Ont. – Wilfrid Laurier University in Waterloo, Ontario is the recent recipient of two full-sized, multi-functional synthetic human models from SynDaver Labs in Tampa, Florida, making WLU the first institution in Canada to possess two full-body SynDaver Synthetic Humans.
RICHARDSON, Texas – Leaders from SynDaver, a medical technology manufacturing company focused on the creation of high-fidelity synthetic human and animal simulators for medical and veterinary training, are scheduled to expo its technology on Friday at the Richardson Independent School District (RISD) Health Science Showcase at Methodist Richardson Medical Center.
TAMPA, Fla. – SynDaver, an advanced biotechnology company specializing in the creation of synthetic humans and synthetic animals for medical testing and training, was recently selected as an awardee of a $186 million contract from the Department of the Army’s Joint Project Management Office for Medical Modeling and Simulation (JPMO MMS).
TAMPA, Fla. – SynDaver, an advanced biotechnology company specializing in the creation of synthetic humans and synthetic animals for medical testing and training, has developed a new oral health trainer for use in dental education institutions.
TAMPA, Fla. – Before Tom Sakezles started his first Tampa barber shop in the early 1950’s, he had already done and seen more than most people would or should in an entire lifetime, including being killed-in-action.
TAMPA, Fla. – As technology giants like Apple, Google and Tesla continue to develop driverless automobiles, a next generation crash-test synthetic human prototype has been developed and is being modified by SynDaver Labs in Tampa with the mission being to improve passenger safety.
SynDaver Labs has become famous for their SynDaver Synthetic Human and the SynDaver Synthetic Canine, but recently the company created a prototype Synthetic Human specifically for use in vehicle safety testing, and it is already being used by one major, but confidential, company in Detroit. Additionally, another of the nation’s largest vehicle manufacturers has also reached out to SynDaver with the intent to use SynDaver’s Synthetic Humans in their testing.
This special version of the SynDaver Synthetic Human is being used by the confidential client to monitor how the body responds to the effects of extreme vibration and noise on the heart and lungs.
The reason SynDaver is being used over conventional crash-test dummies is because SynDaver’s synthetic tissues allow sensors (such as Doppler radar) to penetrate and monitor the blood flow and lung inflation, where a plastic body would not work.
“This version of our Synthetic Human has a heart that actually beats, contracts and forces blood through the vasculature system in a self-contained environment,” said Dr. Christopher Sakezles, founder of SynDaver Labs. “This is just the beginning of what our Synthetic Humans can be used for, but eventually we hope all automobile manufacturers will rely on our technology to see how destructive crashes will affect the body.”
While Apple, Google and Tesla are not currently using the SynDaver Synthetic Human for their crash testing, Sakezles expects they will recognize the value of having the closest thing to a living human as their potential crash test dummies. Apple, Google, Microsoft and other tech companies do currently use SynDaver tech in other applications.
“Our Synthetic Humans can be modified to capture data around any testing protocol and specification needed,” Sakezles said. “Their state-of-the-art autonomous vehicles deserve the most technologically advanced crash test Synthetic Human, and we’re capable of providing them.”
