Dr. Stewart Morgan, PhD, DVM


Hi, Taye here to share with you what we learned when we interviewed Dr. Stewart Morgan from the Molokai Humane Society. I thought Dr. Morgan's presentation was very helpful for our team because our innovative invention might include a microchip. Since he presented microchips we have a better understanding of how to make our invention better and we also know how the band will work and why. I enjoyed the presentation because he helped us a lot and the presentation was very descriptive.  Below are my notes from his presentation. 
Dr. Morgan Presentation Notes

·       Microchips show different information depending on how the microchip is detected or scanned.

·       Sometimes microchips can cause a type of cancer in the area were the microchip is placed.

·       Once a microchip is placed in a body it cannot be taken out or turned off without complicated surgery.

·       Some microchips measure temperature in an animal’s body.

·       There is a type of microchip that measures blood glucose.

·       There is a device that is able to scan/detect microchips it scans the microchips number and sends back the microchips information from that certain microchip that the device scans.

·       The more the microchip is programmed to do the larger the microchip will be.



Uses of a Microchip

·       Electric circuit (circuit=a tiny device that uses very little energy).

·       Microchips don’t use batteries and never lose battery they use energy from electric fields.

·       When microchips are implanted in a body there is no pain.

·       A small reaction in the body creates to keep the microchip in place.

·       Microchips do not cause total disruption.

·       After the microchip is implanted contact the microchip company and register information of human or animal just in case any thing happens.
