New lithium battery technology developed by UW-Madison emeritus professor of
chemistry Robert West powers this tiny microstimulator, a device that effectively
jump-starts broken nerve connections in conditions like Parkinson's, epilepsy
and incontinence. The device was developed by a consortium including UW-Madison’s
Organosilicon Research Center, Argonne National Laboratory, Advanced Bionics
Corp., the Alfred Mann Foundation and Quallion, LLC. It was recognized earlier
in 2005 with an “R&D 100 Award” from R&D magazine.
