Graduates from MIT, Harvard and BU have developed a low-cost, portable ventilator called the Umbulizer, reports Diti Kohli for The Boston Globe. “A small, white and blue block of metal and plastic, the Umbulizer rhythmically delivers air to patients’ lungs and limbs like a normal ventilator. But it costs less than its hospital-grade counterpart,” writes Kohli.
