KRQE's New Mexico Frontiers video features innovative NNMC Parkinson’s glove project

KRQE's New Mexico Frontiers video spotlighted a remarkable project to develop a glove to relieve Parkinson's symptoms, developed by Northern New Mexico College Associate Professor Steve Cox, his engineering students and Española Valley High School Math, Engineering, Science Achievement (MESA) students. KRQE’s Chad Brummett produced the segment, which really captures the essence of the project and the impact it can have on community members with Parkinson’s. Northern thanks Ed Villarejo, who agreed to be filmed as he was fitted with a prototype of the glove.
