Abstract
This special edition of the Journal of Medical Engineering and Technology highlights technology innovations supported by two of the English national MedTech Co-operatives – NIHR Devices for Dignity and the NIHR Children and Young People MedTech Co-operatives. We particularly consider the need for, and impact of, users and usability in the innovation journey, brought to life through a number of case studies across the life course.
