Erik Scott ’87, PhD., Bakken Fellow, Technical Fellow and Director of Advanced Development at Medtronic Incorporated, Restorative Therapies Group.
Abstract: Very often, successful products require contributions from a variety of disciplines. This talk discusses how physics, electrochemistry and materials science come to bear to solve a special problem: creating a very high performance battery to supply power for medical devices implanted in the human body.
