Most medical devices are designed for adults, leaving children dependent on modified tools that don’t fully meet their needs. Pediatric device development faces high costs, strict regulations, and ethical hurdles—slowing innovation where it’s needed most.
This initiative brings together engineers, clinicians, and regulatory experts to:
Design pediatric-specific devices from the ground up
Streamline approvals with child-focused regulatory pathways
Foster collaboration across research, healthcare, and industry
Improve outcomes for the pediatric patients who need it most
By addressing these barriers, we can accelerate the development of safe, effective devices built specifically for children.
