In order to improve the outcome, adipose tissue can be processed before application. In this study, we investigated changes caused by mechanical processing. Lipoaspirates were processed using sedimentation, first-time centrifugation, shear-force homogenization, and second-time centrifugation. The average adipocyte size, stromal vascular cell count, and adipocyte depot size were examined histologically at every processing step. In addition, the adipose derived stem cells (ADSCs) were isolated and differentiated osteogenically and adipogenically. While homogenization causes a disruption of adipocyte depots, the shape of the remaining adipocytes is not changed. On average, these adipocytes are smaller than the depot adipocytes, they are surrounded by the ECM, and therefore mechanically more stable. The volume loss of adipocyte depots leads to a significant enrichment of stromal vascular cells such as ADSCs. However, the mechanical processing does not change the potential of the ADSCs to differentiate adipogenically or steogenically. It thus appears that mechanically processed lipoaspirates are promising for the reparation of even mechanically stressed tissue as that found in nasolabial folds.

We investigated whether specimens of porcine right coronary arteries soften when indented with a stent strut shaped structure, and if the softening results from damage mechanisms inside the fibrillar collagen structure. To simulate the multiaxial loading scenario of a stented coronary artery, we developed the testing device 'LAESIO' that can measure differences in the stress-stretch behavior of the arterial wall before and after the indentation of a strut-like stamp. The testing protocol was optimized according to preliminary experiments, more specifically equilibrium and relaxation tests. After chemical fixation of the specimens and subsequent tissue clearing, we performed three-dimensional surface and second-harmonic generation scans on the deformed specimens. We analyzed and correlated the mechanical response with structural parameters of high-affected tissue located next to the stamp indentation and low-affected tissue beyond the injured area. The results reveal that damage mechanisms, like tissue compression as well as softening, fiber dispersion, and the lesion extent, are direction-dependent, and the severity of them is linked to the strut orientation, indentation pressure, and position. The findings highlight the need for further investigations by applying the proposed methods to human coronary arteries.

Studying this undesirable phenomenon is usually limited as experimental data is hard to obtain on ethical ground. Numerical simulation are performed to better understand this problem. To construct a more realistic simulation of a balloon-expandable stent, a partitioned strongly-coupled FSI simulation of the balloon deployment was set up using the ICFD solver of LS-DYNA, - a quite innovative approach. The complex balloon configuration as well as the interaction of the injection medium and the balloon structure was considered. The balloon structure consisting of shell elements was obtained from preliminary balloon folding and pleating simulations. The balloon consists of a flexible thin walled polyamide. The injection fluid is implemented using volume elements. Balloon deployment was initiated by a pressure boundary condition inducing a volume flow into the balloon. The initial feasibility analysis showed promising result including a continuous balloon deployment and a reasonable development of the fluid pressure and velocity field. However, applying this FSI approach to a more complex balloon structure led to a non convergent solution. The non-convergence could be mainly reduced to mechanical factors including the low wall thickness of the balloon (< 0.05 mm) and the flexibility of the polyamide. Further, the ICFD solver shows less accuracy concerning the FSI conditions when dealing with thin flexible structures as well as enclosed volumes.

In this work, a realistic stent life-cycle simulation has been performed including balloon folding, stent crimping and free expansion of the balloon-stent-system. The successful simulation and validation of two stent designs with homogenous and heterogeneous stent stiffness and an asymmetrically positioned stent on the balloon catheter confirm the universal applicability of the simulation approach. Dogboning ratio, as well as the final dimensions of the folded balloon, the crimped and expanded stent, correspond well to the experimental dimensions with only slight deviations. In contrast to the detailed stent life-cycle simulation, a displacement-controlled simulation can not predict the transient stent expansion, but is suitable to reproduce the final expanded stent shape and the associated stress states.

The numerical results demonstrate that the incorporation of residual stresses and strains experienced during the production step significantly increased the accuracy of the subsequent simulations, especially of the stent expansion model. During the preoperative processes, stresses inside the membrane and the stent material also reached a rather high level. Hence, there can be no presumption that balloon catheters or stents are undamaged before the actual surgery.

Six parameters were investigated: type, amount and speed of media, use of compound, amount of water and time. Type of media, time and speed were found to significantly influence waviness reduction and weight loss.

This study investigates the effects of process-related irregularities, heat and surface treatment on the morphology, mechanical response, and expansion behavior of 316L stainless steel stents produced by laser powder bed fusion and provides a methodological approach for their numerical evaluation. A combined experimental and computational framework is used, based on both actual and computationally reconstructed laser powder bed fused stents. Process-related morphological deviations between the as-designed and actual laser powder bed fused stents were observed, resulting in a diameter increase by a factor of 2-2.6 for the stents without surface treatment and 1.3-2 for the electropolished stent compared to the as-designed stent. Thus, due to the increased geometrically induced stiffness, the laser powder bed fused stents in the as-built (7.11 ± 0.63 N) or the heat treated condition (5.87 ± 0.49 N) showed increased radial forces when compressed between two plates. After electropolishing, the heat treated stents exhibited radial forces (2.38 ± 0.23 N) comparable to conventional metallic stents. The laser powder bed fused stents were further affected by the size effect, resulting in a reduced yield strength by 41\% in the as-built and by 59\% in the heat treated condition compared to the bulk material obtained from tensile tests. The presented numerical approach was successful in predicting the macroscopic mechanical response of the stents under compression. During deformation, increased stiffness and local stress concentration were observed within the laser powder bed fused stents. Subsequent numerical expansion analysis of the derived stent models within a previously verified numerical model of stent expansion showed that electropolished and heat treated laser powder bed fused stents can exhibit comparable expansion behavior to conventional stents.

We created a novel drug-eluting stent system that includes several new features in the rapidly evolving field of stent-based drug delivery. Methods and Results The aim of the present study was the preclinical evaluation of a stent-coating system permitting individual, on-site coating of stents with a unique microporous surface allowing for individualizable, dose-adjustable, and multiple coatings with identical or various compounds, designated ISAR (individualizable drug-eluting stent system to abrogate restenosis). Stents were coated with 0.75\% rapamycin solution, and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)-based determination of drug release profile indicated drug release for >21 days. Rapamycin-eluting microporous (REMP) stents implanted in porcine coronary arteries were safe. To determine the efficacy of REMP stents, this novel drug-eluting stent platform was compared with the standard sirolimus-eluting stent. At 30 days, in-stent neointima formation in porcine coronary arteries was similar in both groups, yielding a significant decrease of neointimal area and injury-dependent neointimal thickness compared with bare-metal stents. Conclusion The ISAR drug-eluting stent platform as a novel concept for stent coating allows for a safe, effective, on-site stent coating process, thus justifying further clinical evaluation to decrease in-stent restenosis in humans. In-stent neointima formation can be successfully attenuated by drug-eluting stents.

In this study, the authors tested whether a combination of centrifugation and homogenization allowed the enrichment of viable stem cells in lipoaspirates through the selective removal of tumescent solution, blood, and released lipids without significantly affecting the cell secretome. Methods: Human lipoaspirate was harvested from six different patients using water jet-assisted liposuction. Lipoaspirate was homogenized by first centrifugation (3584 rpm for 2 minutes), shear strain (10 times intersyringe processing), and second centrifugation (3584 rpm for 2 minutes). Stem cell enrichment was shown by cell counting after stem cell isolation. Lipoaspirate from different processing steps (unprocessed, after first centrifugation, after homogenization, after second centrifugation) was incubated in serum-free cell culture medium for mass spectrometric analysis of secreted proteins. Results: Lipoaspirate homogenization leads to a significant 2.6 ± 1.75-fold enrichment attributable to volume reduction without reducing the viability of the stem cells. Protein composition of the secretome did not change significantly after tissue homogenization. Considering the enrichment effects, there were no significant differences in the protein concentration of the 83 proteins found in all processing steps.

However, the issue of muscle fatigue is not considered adequately in most models and is a challenging task. One aspect that needs to be examined is the interaction of muscles during an exhausting task. Therefore, an experimental study was designed to analyze the changes of back muscle recruitment pattern during such exercises. In this study 38 subjects (27 male, 11 female, height = 177±8.5 cm, weight = 74.0±13.6 kg) participated. Each subject had to perform three static and three dynamic exhausting exercises where the back muscles were loaded with subject specific forces using a dynamometer adapter especially designed for the trunk muscles. To collect the muscle activity, twelve surface electromyography sensors were applied on the back, and four on the abdominal muscles. Muscle activity and fatigue were analyzed by calculating the maximum voluntary contraction normalized signal and the median frequency. At first the fatigue of m. erector spinae and m. multifidi was analyzed, since these muscles carry the main load during the exercises. Subsequently the activity of the m. trapezius, m. rectus abdominis and m. obliquus externus were investigated to determine recruitment patterns. To gain more detailed information of these patterns a numerical model was built using the AnyBody Modeling System™. Analyzing the measurements, we can observe an increasing muscle activity during isokinetic exercises while the force is constant. Since the activity in the simulation is defined as the current force output divided by the strength of the muscle, the strength parameter was scaled down based on the measured data, assuming a linear force - activity correlation, and using a numerical algorithm considering the influence of cross talk. The results show, that changes in recruitment pattern can be divided into three major subgroups. Prior to total exhaustion, some of the subjects show additional activation of muscles in the trapezius region, while other subjects show an additional activation of abdominal muscles, increasing the intra-abdominal pressure which supports the spine. In the third group an activation in both regions can be observed. The numerical simulations show an increasing activity of abdominal muscles as well as muscles in the upper back. Especially the m. latissimus dorsi shows a significantly higher activity. The results lead to the conclusion that prior to total exhaustion, additional muscles are recruited to support the main muscles. It was shown that abdominal muscles are activated to support back muscles by pressurizing the trunk cavity to delay total exhaustion as long as possible. In conclusion, the results show that changes in muscle recruitment pattern need to be considered when introducing muscle fatigue to musculoskeletal models.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{JungtaeublAurbachMelzneretal., author = {Jungt{\"a}ubl, Dominik and Aurbach, Maximilian and Melzner, Maximilian and Spicka, Jan and S{\"u}ß, Franz and Dendorfer, Sebastian}, title = {EMG-Based Validation of Musculoskeletal Models Considering Crosstalk}, series = {International Conference BIOMDLORE, June 28 - 30 2018, Białystok, Poland}, booktitle = {International Conference BIOMDLORE, June 28 - 30 2018, Białystok, Poland}, doi = {10.1109/BIOMDLORE.2018.8467211}, abstract = {BACKGROUND: Validation and verification of multibody musculoskeletal models sEMG is a difficult process because of the reliability of sEMG data and the complex relationship of muscle force and sEMG. OBJECTIVE: This work aims at comparing experimentally recorded and simulated muscle activities considering a numerical model for crosstalk. METHODS: For providing an experimentally derived reference data set, subjects were performing elevations of the arm, where the activities of the contemplated muscle groups were measured by sEMG sensors. Computed muscle activities were further processed and transformed into an artificial electromyographical signal, which includes a numerical crosstalk model. In order to determine whether the crosstalk model provides a better agreement with the measured muscle activities, the Pearson correlation coefficient has been computed as a qualitative way of assessing the curve progression of the data sets. RESULTS: The results show an improvement in the correlation coefficient between the experimental data and the simulated muscle activities when taking crosstalk into account. CONCLUSIONS: Although the correlation coefficient increased when the crosstalk model was utilized, it is questionable if the discretization of both, the crosstalk and the musculoskeletal model, is accurate enough.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{SuessKubowitschVerkerkeetal., author = {S{\"u}ß, Franz and Kubowitsch, Simone and Verkerke, Gijsbertus Jacob and Dendorfer, Sebastian}, title = {Investigation of cognitive stress induced changes in spinal disc forces due to altered kinematics and muscle activity}, series = {World Congress Biomechanics, Dublin, 2018}, booktitle = {World Congress Biomechanics, Dublin, 2018}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{SuessKubowitschVerkerkeetal., author = {S{\"u}ß, Franz and Kubowitsch, Simone and Verkerke, Gijsbertus Jacob and Dendorfer, Sebastian}, title = {The influence of mental stress on spinal disc loading and muscle activity}, series = {23th Congress of the European Society of Biomechanics, Sevilla, Spain, 2017}, booktitle = {23th Congress of the European Society of Biomechanics, Sevilla, Spain, 2017}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{PillingSuessKubowitschetal., author = {Pilling, A. and S{\"u}ß, Franz and Kubowitsch, Simone and Dendorfer, Sebastian}, title = {Experimental workflow for determining psychological stress from physiological biosignals}, series = {Jahrestagung der BIOMEDIZINISCHEN TECHNIK und Dreil{\"a}ndertagung der MEDIZINISCHEN PHYSIK, Dresden, Germany, 2017}, booktitle = {Jahrestagung der BIOMEDIZINISCHEN TECHNIK und Dreil{\"a}ndertagung der MEDIZINISCHEN PHYSIK, Dresden, Germany, 2017}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{GrossVerkerkeDendorfer, author = {Gross, Simon and Verkerke, Gijsbertus Jacob and Dendorfer, Sebastian}, title = {Investigation of external load dependent static and dynamic muscle fatigue}, series = {23th Congress of the European Society of Biomechanics, Sevilla, Spain, 2017}, booktitle = {23th Congress of the European Society of Biomechanics, Sevilla, Spain, 2017}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{KubowitschSuessJansenetal., author = {Kubowitsch, Simone and S{\"u}ß, Franz and Jansen, Petra and Dendorfer, Sebastian}, title = {Comparison of dynamic muscular imbalances in back pain patients and healthy controls}, series = {World Congress Biomechanics Dublin, 2018}, booktitle = {World Congress Biomechanics Dublin, 2018}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{SeefriedAurbachWyssetal., author = {Seefried, C. and Aurbach, Maximilian and Wyss, C. and Dendorfer, Sebastian}, title = {Achilles tendon lengthening alters stresses in the growth plate}, series = {International Conference BIOMDLORE, June 28 -

Measuring these internal forces is very difficult or almost impossible; therefore, advanced models are necessary to perform musculoskeletal simulations. The objective of this investigation was to see what loads are acting in the individual foot joints from the phalanges to calcaneus and talus during different brake scenarios. The Glasgow-Maastricht AnyBody Foot Model with 26 separate segments, connected by joints, ligaments and muscles was used inside the AnyBody Modeling System to compute individual mid foot joint loads. The amount, the direction of the force and additionally also the load insertion point was varied for several simulations. Figure 1: Seated musculoskeletal body model with applied brake force and forces for the lateral, intermediate and medial cuneiform-navicular joint for two different brake forces. The simulation showed that for the different brake scenarios, different muscles will be activated in the human and therefore different loads are apply in the fore-and mid-foot, respectively. The torso of the subject was assumed to be fixed in the seat.

These effects have been reported as adjacent joint degeneration and the development of new symptoms correlating with adjacent segment degeneration[2] and the trend has therefore gone to motion preservation devices; however, these effects have not been understood very well and have not been investigated thoroughly[3]. The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of varying the stiffness of spinal fusion devices on the adjacent vertebral levels. Disc forces, moments and facet joint forces were analyzed. METHODS The AnyBody Modeling System was used to compute the in-vivo muscle and joint reaction forces of a musculoskeletal model. The full body model used in this study consists of 188 muscle fascicles in the lumbar spine and more than 1000 individual muscle branches in total. The model has been proposed by de Zee et al.[3], validated by Rasmussen et al.[4] and by Galibarov et al.[5]. The new model[5] determines the individual motions between vertebrae based on the equilibrium between forces acting on the vertebrae from muscles and joints and the passive stiffness in disks and ligaments, figure 1a. An adult of 1.75 m and 75 kg with a spinal implant in L4L5 was modeled. This model was subjected to a flexion-extension motion using different elastic moduli to analyze and compare to a non-implanted scenario. The analyzed variables were vertebral motion, the disc reaction forces and moments, as well as facet joint forces in the treated and the adjacent levels: L2L3, L3L4, L4L5 and L5-Sacrum. RESULTS When introducing a spinal fusion device in the L4L5 joint the reaction forces and moments decreased in this joint with stiffer devices leading to lower joint loads. However, in the adjacent joints, L3L4 and L5Sacrum, an increase was observed when implanting stiffer devices. Similar trends could be found for the L2L3 joint. The loads in the facet joints showed the same trends. While introducing a spinal fusion device reduced the facet joint forces in the treated joint, the loads in the adjacent facet joints were increased according to the stiffness of the implanted device, figure 1b. DISCUSSION While the treated disc joint showed reduced motion and loads, the adjacent levels demonstrated a significant increase. In particular, the increased facet joint forces in the adjacent levels can lead to adjacent level facet pain or accelerated facet joint degeneration. Introducing a device resulted in preventing facet contact and therefore facet joint loads, even using the device with the lowest stiffness. CONCLUSION The presented model shows that clinical complications such as facet joint degeneration in adjacent levels after implantation of spinal fusion device are consistent with the change in the mechanical-stimulus distribution in the system.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{GalibarovDendorferChristensen, author = {Galibarov, Pavel E. and Dendorfer, Sebastian and Christensen, Soeren Toerholm}, title = {On modelling spine curvature dependent on muscular and external forces in multibody dynamics system}, series = {International Society of Biomechanics (ISB), 13th congress, 2011, Brussels, Belgium}, booktitle = {International Society of Biomechanics (ISB), 13th congress, 2011, Brussels, Belgium}, pages = {2}, abstract = {This paper presents a computational approach for investigating effect of muscular and external forces on curvature of the lumbar spine.

Alternatively, inertial measurement units can be utilized to obtain human kinematics, while ground reaction forces are computed from full body dynamics. This setup represents a system independent from the spatial confinement of a gait laboratory. The aim of this study is the comparison of the two methods by the investigation of lower limb kinematics and the resulting joint reaction forces within the ankle-, knee- and hip joints. For this purpose, human motion during gait was captured simultaneously by both measurement techniques. 13 trials from 8 different test subjects were evaluated in total. IMU data was processed with a quaternion based Kalman Filter. The data sets were implemented into a musculoskeletal simulation program in order to drive a virtual human body model. Each sensor was aligned to the gravitational and magnetic field vectors of the earth. The angles of flexions, extensions and rotations were analyzed to determine kinematic differences. Joint reaction forces defined kinetic dissimilarities. The overall kinematic differences of both models yielded root mean square errors of 7.62°, 6.02°, 4.95°, 2.79°, 2.38° and 3.56° for ankle flexion, subtalar eversion, knee flexion, hip external rotation, hip abduction and hip flexion, respectively. The proximo-distal differences in force peaks between the models yielded overall for the ankle, 57.33 \%Bodyweight(BW) ± 46.86 \%BW (16.66 \%(Maximum peak to peak) ± 13.62 \%) for the knee 37.09 \%BW ± 29.33 \%BW (17.65 \% ± 15.44 \%) and 32.03 \%BW ± 24.33 \%BW (15.6 \% ± 12.54 \%) for the hip. The overall outcome of this work investigated an approach independent of the common setup of the gait laboratory, thus enabling a cheaper and more flexible technology as an alternative. However, kinematic and thus kinetic differences remain rather large. Future work aims to improve the contact criterion for the calculation of the ground reaction forces and the implementation of a full-body calibration algorithm for the IMU system in order to counteract magnetic field disturbances.}, subject = {Bewegungsapparat}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{SchmidJungbauerRomanoetal., author = {Schmid, Vinzent and Jungbauer, Bastian and Romano, Marco and Ehrlich, Ingo and Gebbeken, Norbert}, title = {The influence of different types of fabrics on the fibre volume content and porosity in basalt fibre reinforced plastics}, series = {2nd Applied Research Conference 2012 - ARC 25./26.

The changes are thought to be mediated by TGFβ2 and its downstream mediator CTGF. Recently we developed a murine glaucoma model by overexpressing CTGF in the anterior eye (βb1CTGF). In this study we investigated the glial lamina region of βb1CTGF mice, and the changes of astrocytes in response to CTGF and TGFβ2 as well as increasing substratum stiffness. Methods: Tangential sections of the glial LC of 2-month-old βb1CTGF mice and their wild-type littermates (WT) were stained with phalloidin and antibodies against GFAP, CTGF and fibronectin (FN). Murine optic nerve (ON) astrocytes from CD1 mice were isolated, cultured and characterized by GFAP staining. The astrocytes were treated with TGFβ2 (1ng/ml) and CTGF (50ng/ml and 100ng/ml). In addition, the cells were seeded on PDMS substrata with different stiffness (10, 30 and 60 kPa). Treated cells were analyzed by Western blotting, real-time RT-PCR and immunohistochemistry. Wound healing assays were performed to analyze migration rate following growth factor treatment. Results: βb1CTGF mice showed a massive increase in CTGF and GFAP in the glial LC when compared with WT mice. Moreover, an increase in FN staining and phalloidin-labeled actin was observed in the peripapillary sclera. Murine ON astrocytes reacted on increased substrate stiffness by increasing the synthesis of GFAP, vimentin and CTGF. Treatment of the cells with TGFβ2 and CTGF led to an enhanced migration rate. In addition, treatment resulted in an increased expression and synthesis of ECM proteins, including FN, tropoelastin, collagen type I and III. The in vitro findings correlated with those seen in the glaucoma mouse model. Conclusions: We conclude that changes in the ECM of LC and peripapillary sclera alter their biomechanical properties and thereby induce reactive changes in resident astrocytes. The reactive changes induced by higher stiffness of their surrounding ECM give rise to a self-amplifying process that includes increased TGFβ2/CTGF signaling and leads to synthesis of ECM and cytoskeletal proteins, a process that in turn augments the stiffness at the optic nerve head (ONH). Such a scenario may finally result in a vicious circle as the causative mechanism for ONH deformation in POAG.}, language = {en} } @misc{Singh, author = {Singh, Max Diamond}, title = {European Union MDRs impact on device manufacturers: Reprocessing of surgical invasive devices, critical timeliness and technical documentation requirements under MDR}, series = {The validation of sterile medical devices: sterilization, packaging, biocompatibility, toxicology and reprocessing, Amsterdam, 26.03. - 28.03.2019 [Veranstalter: Nelson Labs ; Sterigenics]}, journal = {The validation of sterile medical devices: sterilization, packaging, biocompatibility, toxicology and reprocessing, Amsterdam, 26.03. - 28.03.2019 [Veranstalter: Nelson Labs ; Sterigenics]}, language = {en} } @misc{Singh, author = {Singh, Max Diamond}, title = {Challenges to innovate in the medical device industry under the light of the new EU MDR : a notified body perspective}, series = {Intelligent medical devices - the next disruptor in healthcare ; challenges and oppoertunieties: technical, clinical, regulatory and health economics/market access}, journal = {Intelligent medical devices - the next disruptor in healthcare ; challenges and oppoertunieties: technical, clinical, regulatory and health economics/market access}, language = {en} } @misc{Singh, author = {Singh, Max Diamond}, title = {Innovation challenges for orthopedic device manufacturers under the new EU MDR}, series = {ORS (Orthopaedic Research Society) Annual Meeting. - Phoenix, Arizona, 08. - 11.02.2020}, journal = {ORS (Orthopaedic Research Society) Annual Meeting. - Phoenix, Arizona, 08. - 11.02.2020}, language = {en} } @misc{Singh, author = {Singh, Max Diamond}, title = {EU-MDR from a Notified Body Perspective - aktuelle Situation hinsichtlich der Anforderungen zum Lieferantenmanagement}, language = {de} } @misc{Singh, author = {Singh, Max Diamond}, title = {EU Medical Device Regulation: Top Challenges of Orthopedic Manufacturers}, series = {OMTEC 2019 : 15th Annual Orthopedic Manufacturing \& Technology Exposition and Conference, Chicago, 11.6.2019}, journal = {OMTEC 2019 : 15th Annual Orthopedic Manufacturing \& Technology Exposition and Conference, Chicago, 11.6.2019}, language = {en} } @misc{Singh, author = {Singh, Max Diamond}, title = {KARL STORZ Navigation Panel Unit - Navigation for ENT surgery}, series = {FESS 2010 : International Workshop on FESS ; Lectures \& Live Surgery. - Royal Pearl Hospital, Tiruchirappalli (Indien), 10.-11.04.2010}, journal = {FESS 2010 : International Workshop on FESS ; Lectures \& Live Surgery. - Royal Pearl Hospital, Tiruchirappalli (Indien), 10.-11.04.2010}, language = {en} } @misc{Singh, author = {Singh, Max Diamond}, title = {Conformity Assessment Procedure MDR}, series = {MDR Training: Person Responsible for Regulatory Compliance Course, 24.-25.02.2020, Tel Aviv, Obelis Academy}, journal = {MDR Training: Person Responsible for Regulatory Compliance Course, 24.-25.02.2020, Tel Aviv, Obelis Academy}, language = {en} } @misc{Singh, author = {Singh, Max Diamond}, title = {Innovationsmanagement}, language = {de} } @misc{Singh, author = {Singh, Max Diamond}, title = {General Overview of the Medical Device Regulation}, series = {MDR-Roadshow - T{\"U}V S{\"U}D MHS, India}, journal = {MDR-Roadshow - T{\"U}V S{\"U}D MHS, India}, language = {en} } @incollection{SinghCapanni, author = {Singh, Max Diamond and Capanni, Felix}, title = {Medizintechnik-Spin-offs aus der Hochschule - Ein Prozessbeispiel}, series = {Entrepreneurship im Gesundheitswesen II}, booktitle = {Entrepreneurship im Gesundheitswesen II}, editor = {Pfannstiel Mario A., and Da-Cruz, Patrick and Rasche, Christoph}, publisher = {Springer Gabler}, address = {Wiesbaden}, isbn = {978-3-658-14781-5}, abstract = {Die Aufmerksamkeit f{\"u}r Unternehmensgr{\"u}ndungen hat in den letzten Jahren extrem zugenommen.
