Researchers at U-M and the University of Tokyo say they've developed a technology that safely and wirelessly charges devices across large spaces.

An associate professor of electrical engineering and computer science at U-M, Fu is the founder of the Archimedes Center for Medical Device Security. The university released the following Q&A with Fu, who discussed the medical device industry and the challenges it faces. Updating legacy medical device software is a huge challenge. A lot of medical device manufacturers have a difficult time grappling with computer security risks. The world needs five-year academic programs that combine biomedical engineering, software engineering and public policy to culminate with a master’s degree.
