VitalEyes is a CREATE-X backed webapp that enables research labs to proactively social distance and regulate capacity by providing a drop-in scheduling system for researchers to dynamically adjust their lab usage. We also provide analytics to administrators, helping labs stay within guidelines and better self-regulate.
We’re MedLynk, an Award Winning* Georgia Tech Create-X group that has developed a predictive algorithm for manufacturers that have retooled to make PPE. Our solution can help focus the attention of PPE suppliers by predicting demand for PPE due to high COVID-19 cases, and lists the most vulnerable healthcare facilities in each county.

Shofner was coordinating the PPE gown identification on campus with IEN cleanrooms. At some point the State of GA took over the inventory of lab PPE equipment activity.
Work in conjunction with GCMI and the consortium that they have put together to support efforts to quickly mass produce N-95 Respirators for use in hospitals.
To reverse engineer, design and 3-D printing of ventilator parts.
Biolocity is an incubator at Emory University and Georgia Tech focused on advancing life science technologies to the market.
Nursing homes are challenged by connecting residents with caretakers and family, and it is difficult to track residents’ health status. This team worked to develop an app, CareRing, to keep everyone informed about residents’ needs.
Develop a wearable device for the treatment of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) caused by Covid-19 and pneumonia.
With an increasing number of United States health workers becoming infected with coronavirus, this project predicts that dual sterilization and storage can prevent and reduce cases of further infection among healthcare workers. Additionally, they propose the use of ultraviolet germicidal irradiation will provide three to four log reduction of germ presence on N95 masks.
