Slepian Discusses Wearable Tech With KVOA

Advancements in health care technology are helping track, treat and prevent diseases.

As Tucson's KVOA News 4 reports, Dr. Marvin Slepian, a physician-scientist and BME's associate department head of clinical and industrial affairs, works on wearable sensors like Biostamp. This FDA-approved device adheres to the skin and measures vital signs, activity, posture and sleep. 

Slepian addressed the potential impacts of wearable tech, VR and integrative imaging on health care in a recent lecture at the UA College of Medicine – Tucson.
