Founder and CEO, Dr. Aadeel Akhtar, was seven years old when he first started thinking about prosthetics and imagining what it would mean to help people with limb differences unleash the best in themselves. While visiting Pakistan with his parents, he met an amputee for the first time. She was his age and didn’t have the same access to healthcare that he did.
It was striking, even to a kid. How could they share a heritage but have such different lives? As he grew older, he came to understand the vast discrepancies in resources that people have around the world and right here in the United States. And so he started PSYONIC while in college to help develop advanced prostheses that are affordable for everyone.
What began as a small group of University of Illinois engineers has grown to include engineers, public health experts, social workers, and designers – along with an incredible group of doctors, clinicians, and non-profits working in the developing world. www.psyonic.io
