Celebrating a standout contributor to WearME

We’re excited to celebrate Nisargkumar (Nisarg) Patel, who was recently featured by UMBC as Intern of the Week, a well-deserved recognition of his professionalism, technical skill, and impact at LASARRUS.

• Strengthened connectivity reliability: He has been actively improving sensor connection/disconnection behaviors to make the system more robust in real-world use.

• Helped shape our patient app direction: Nisarg has been leading early evaluation of the best mobile framework approach for our upcoming patient-facing app, balancing developer velocity, Bluetooth support, and long-term maintainability.
