Innovations of YS: Leland Clark, the Father of Biosensors

Description

Yellow Springs has an incredible history of innovation with great stories to tell. Alan Brunsman will present a brief overview of the life of Dr. Leland Clark, “the father of Biosensors.” Alan worked with Dr. Clark for more than 35 years and will share some of his memories. His presentation will provide information about why Dr. Clark is known as “The Edison of Medicine.” There will be a discussion of Clark’s many inventions and the impact they have had on medicine, saving many millions of lives as well as helping save the environment. 

This is the first of what we hope will be an ongoing series about technology in Yellow Springs. To register or send suggestions for future topics email info@ysseniors.org. Zoom will be available.
