The science behind deWiz minimizes the guesswork of improving your golf swing and allows golfers to simply “swing, feel and improve faster.” Described by Forbes as looking to bring a “jolt to the golf training aid market,” deWiz’s innovative technology merges high-precision swing analysis with its revolutionary Learning Stimuli, which provides real-time haptic feedback with a buzz on the golfer’s wrist and/or an audio alert the moment a golfer’s swing goes astray. The magic of this instantaneous feedback is scientifically based on motor learning, which allows golfers using deWiz to more quickly adjust their golf swing motion and accelerate their learning process.
“deWiz’s data capture capabilities are unmatched via our wearable device, precisely measuring golf swing data like transition plane, length of backswing, hand speed and tempo ratio like never before. But what sets deWiz apart is our Learning Stimuli, which minimizes the guesswork. Other swing analysis tools require interpreting data on a screen and translating that into a proper swing, which is a time-consuming, trial-and-error process. Meanwhile, deWiz combines its high-precision data with real-time feedback within a golfer’s swing to help them improve faster,” said Markus Westerberg, co-founder and CTO of deWiz and certified PGA of Sweden instructor.
DEVELOPED BY EXPERTS, TESTED BY PROS: deWiz’s innovative technology has attracted an impressive roster of global ambassadors. The product has been in development for more than five years and tested by a range of champions, including 2020 U.S. Open Champion Bryson DeChambeau, 10-time Major Champion Annika Sorenstam, 3-time Major Champion Vijay Singh, 2-time Major Champion Lydia Ko, 2016 Open Champion Henrik Stenson, 2019 Houston Open Champion Lanto Griffin and 2-time World Long Drive Champion Tim Burke.
SWING, FEEL, IMPROVE: deWiz’s user-friendly app and wearable tech tracks the precise position of a golfer’s hands throughout their swing, providing a 3D analysis. This innovative approach to golf instruction is backed by patented technology, which deWiz currently has secured with 7 patent families that have been granted or are pending across the U.S., Europe, and other strategic global markets.
Within the app, current swing training features include Transition, Length of Backswing, Wedge Distance and Tempo. These unique deWiz data points help any avid golfer, teaching professional or world-class player can better know their numbers to efficiently refine a consistent swing.
Currently for sale for 699 USD and available across the United States, Europe, and South Korea (more markets opening regularly – visit the website for the latest updates), deWiz is offering an introductory, limited-time discount of 10% off to celebrate this wearable technology’s buzzworthy launch. Please visit www.dewizgolf.com for more details on how to improve your swing faster or download the app to explore its features via Apple’s App Store or Google Play.

JEOL: Sales Launch of the Laser SEM System “LazEdge”25.5.2026 10:16:00 CEST | Press Release
JEOL Ltd. (President & CEO: Izumi Oi) has developed the “LazEdge”, an SEM system equipped with a laser processing system, and begins sales on May 25, 2026. Cross-section preparation instruments such as the focused ion beam system (FIB system), are widely used in science and technology fields across research institutes, universities, and industries. In recent years, demand is increasing for a system that can process large-areas at a high speed, while achieving high-quality of the processed surface. “LazEdge” is an instrument integrating JEOL’s SEM with the laser technology proprietary of Hamamatsu Photonics K.K., and enables laser processing inside the specimen chamber of the electron microscope. This system enables high-quality cross-section specimens produced through high-speed, large-area processing to be transferred seamlessly to subsequent analyses, such as SEM observation, elemental analysis, and crystal orientation analysis, without exposure to the external environment. As a resu
TFG-001, A Novel 3D Neural Microtissue Cell Therapy, Demonstrates Superior Functionality and Reinnervation for Parkinson’s Disease25.5.2026 08:00:00 CEST | Press Release
TreeFrog Therapeutics, a regenerative medicine biotech company developing next-generation cell therapies, today announced that it will present new preclinical data on TFG-001 at the 7th World Parkinson’s Conference. TFG-001, a 3D neural microtissue cell therapy, demonstrated rapid dopamine release and extensive graft-derived reinnervation across multiple advanced translational Parkinson’s disease models—supporting its potential as a best-in-class candidate. The critical need for reinnervation in Parkinson's disease In Parkinson's disease, an estimated 60–80% of dopaminergic neurons are already lost before motor symptoms even appear. The nigrostriatal pathway degenerates, destroying the essential wiring that connects dopamine-producing neurons to movement control. While chemical dopamine replacements (like levodopa) can manage symptoms, they cannot restore the spatial precision, feedback loops, or dynamic regulation of a healthy brain network. To achieve true functional restoration, it
