I am relatively new to this area of the news net world, so bear wih me. I am interested in finding information, or contacts or ANYTHING pertaining to UPPER EXTREMETY PROSTHETIC DEVICES. Question 1: What is the proper/best newsgroup to monitor for information pertaining to prosthetic limbs? Well now, let's get a little more personal. I am a Systems Design engineering student at the University of Waterloo, Waterloo Ontario Canada. I am doing a research project into the design of a new type of prosthetic device. What I am looking for, is for any technical information from engineers into their designs of prosthetic devices, AND/OR information about the human arm and its fnctional capability. PLEASE, just drop me a line. I am interested in talking to anyone who feels that they can contribute to my efforts to improve the quality of life!
