Detecting cancer early often depends on sensing subtle molecular changes inside the body, yet most tools can only measure one biomarker at a time and struggle to operate reliably in living tissue. This limitation makes it difficult for clinicians to […]
Chronic wounds place a heavy burden on health care systems because they require constant monitoring and frequent adjustments in treatment. Clinicians often struggle to detect infection early enough to intervene effectively, and most dressings are limited to either monitoring or
Real‑time blood monitoring has remained out of reach because most sensors quickly clog when exposed to unprocessed blood, losing sensitivity within minutes. This fouling problem has been one of the biggest barriers to continuous biochemical tracking, preventing clinicians from measuring
Cell‑Inspired Sensor Enables Real‑Time Molecular Monitoring in Blood Read More »
Chronic wounds often linger because they receive too little oxygen, heal slowly, and are highly susceptible to bacterial growth. These challenges are especially common in people with diabetes or limited mobility, whose impaired circulation makes even small sores difficult to

Monitoring health through exhaled breath has long been limited by the difficulty of collecting reliable samples over extended periods. Traditional approaches struggle because breath condensate dries quickly, sensors degrade in humid environments, and wearable systems depend on batteries that require
Many diagnostic tests still rely on large optical instruments that sit in centralized laboratories, making it difficult for patients to access rapid, convenient sampling. These systems depend on external lasers, bulky optics, and controlled environments, which limits their use outside
A recent breakthrough from researchers at Kiel University in Germany introduces an ultralight 3D aerohydrogel material that allows human brain cells to grow, connect, and exchange signals in ways that closely resemble real neural tissue. The team set out to
A recent advance from Pohang University of Science and Technology (POSTECH) and Ewha Womans University in Korea introduces a spray‑on coating that adheres directly to transplanted organs and delivers immunosuppressive drugs locally, offering a potential way to reduce or even
Researchers at Washington State University have created a 3D‑printed heart model that can beat, pump fluid, and mimic the mechanical behavior of real cardiac tissue, offering surgeons a more realistic way to practice complex procedures before entering the operating room.
A new effort from the University of Mississippi is advancing how clinicians might treat chronic wounds by developing a 3D‑printed bandage that delivers natural antimicrobial compounds while supporting tissue repair. Chronic wounds such as diabetic ulcers and pressure sores can
