Last week Oklahoma City-based Orthocare Innovations held a press conference to spotlight the newest technologies to be transferred into the company’s already exciting line of developments. Partnering with Orthocare Innovations on this event was Oklahoma Senator Jim Inhofe, lead researchers from Oak Ridge National Laboratories and Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Lab, and Mike Carolina, Executive Director of the Oklahoma Center for the Advancement of Science and Technology.

The exciting announcement and demonstration drew a full crowd of media and leadersfrom the bioscience community, leaving standing room only at the PHF Research Park conference facility. Orthocare Innovations announced new partnerships and license agreements on cutting edge technology from Oak Ridge National Laboratories and Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Lab. Senator Inhofe underscored the need for continued advancements in the development and successful commercialization of prosthetic technologies saying,'...unless the technology can be transferred to a company to make them commercial products, they will remain only exciting ideas in the lab. That is why I intend to address improving the commercialization of federally funded prosthetic research and development.'
