Researchers at Penn State have developed a flexible, skin-like sensor that can monitor both physical movement and electrical signals—internally and externally. Designed to mimic the properties of human skin, the device combines electrical and ionic conductivity, allowing it to interface
Skin-Like Biosensor Monitors Both Physical Movement and Electrical Signals in the Body Read More »
For decades, blood pressure monitoring has relied on a 19th-century invention: the inflatable cuff. Whether at the doctor’s office or at home, the process is the same—wrap, squeeze, release, repeat. But while the cuff has become a clinical staple, it’s
Speckle Contrast Optical Spectroscopy Improves Cuffless Blood Pressure Accuracy Read More »
For patients with inherited heart conditions—especially children—treatment options are often limited, and studying the disease in the lab has long been a challenge. That’s because traditional stem-cell-derived heart cells tend to remain immature, behaving more like fetal tissue than adult
Lab-Grown Cardiac Tissues Offer Hope for Genetic Heart Disease Read More »
Researchers at Yale School of Medicine have developed PanEcho, an AI-powered tool that interprets echocardiograms with remarkable speed and accuracy. Traditionally, analyzing these heart ultrasounds requires expert review of over 100 images and videos per patient. PanEcho automates this process,
