*Implantable Finger Prosthesis

Topic: Biomechanics / Microfabrication

Vanderbilt 2024 Fall – 2025 Spring Semester

> Designing an implantable index finger prosthesis osseointegrating into the native distal phalanx.

> Building CAD models for design and Finite Element Analysis to ensure structural integrity and performance.

> Prototyping with laser cut and 3D print to prove concept of linkage, pulley, and hydraulic mechanisms.

> Implanting the prototype into a cadaver to evaluate practical application and biomechanical performance.

> Demonstrating the viability of the product with physical model to experts with non-engineering backgrounds.
