Draper is a not-for-profit research and development laboratory focuses on the design, development, and deployment of advanced technology solutions to problems in national security, space exploration, health care and energy. Draper's expertise in sensors, electronics miniaturization, algorithms and signal processing, and decision support can significantly improve the design and development of miniature smart medical devices. Draper is developing a drug delivery system to specifically address the challenges associated with administering therapeutics to areas of the body that are difficult to reach and that require precise, controlled dosing. These include the CNS, brain, and inner ear for treatment of diseases such as Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s, and certain types of hearing loss.
