Our brains in space: The next giant leap
Karla explores the challenges our brains experience in space and how mathematical modelling can help us understand and overcome these.
Case Study
Gastrointestinal Robotic Platform
A revolutionary gastrointestinal robotic platform – based around a Smart Pill – that can take samples from predetermined locations in the gastrointestinal tract. This technology has applications in R&D for drug delivery systems through active location analysis, diagnosis and sampling within the gastrointestinal tract and enabling gastrointestinal delivery of proteins and peptides.
Case Study
A novel wearable that saves lives
In an intense disaster or battlefield scenario, correctly identifying which victim to treat first can be a matter of life or death, so we created a specialised wearable monitor. The device won the prestigious ‘Best of the Best’ Red Dot award.
Case Study
Bringing breast cancer treatment into the physician’s office
We were asked to develop a new cryoablation technology in this crowded IP space. Our scientists and engineers started from first principles and were able to create a new patented system that enabled the office-based treatment of breast cancer.
Case Study
Micro-mechanics that increase dexterity
Catheter ablation is widely used to treat a range of abnormal heart rhythms. It involves passing a thin, flexible catheter through the blood vessels to the heart, where it pinpoints the arrhythmia and uses ablation to block the abnormal electrical signals. A more dexterous catheter increases success rates for patients and retains greater cardiac function.

When is “clinical software” not “software as a medical device”?
Getting medical devices regulated to international standards is not easy. Rose explains how this process could be made much simpler.
Case Study
High-performance heart monitor for equine sport
We helped develop a new heart monitor to allow vets and trainers to accurately assess sport horses and spot anomalies that might indicate problems. It is now used all over the world to improve welfare in both training and in international competitions.
Case Study
Low pain lancing system for diabetics
The aim was to disrupt the diagnostics market with a lancing system that would significantly improve the patient’s experience. Our development and regulatory teams helped our client launch the first FDA & CE approved device for fully automated, virtually pain-free lancing.

Crankl: from the bike shed to the operating theater, how CDP created a novel surgical tool.
It is important to start each innovation journey with the broadest possible mindset because this opens the door to all sorts of different solutions that might exist outside one team’s experiences. A great example of this philosophy in action was the design of a surgical torque wrench that we developed…
