Small as a candy: Waterproof IoT sensor reliably measures the properties of liquids even in hard-to-reach places
19-May-2023
Imagine a scenario where you simply just throw in a pill to identify an error—this is now one step closer to reality thanks to the work done by researchers at Fraunhofer IZM in cooperation with Micro Systems Technologies (MST) and Sensry GmbH. As small as a piece of candy, the waterproof IoT ...
AI model spots those at highest risk for up to three years before diagnosis
16-May-2023
An artificial intelligence tool has successfully identified people at the highest risk for pancreatic cancer up to three years before diagnosis using solely the patients’ medical records, according to new research led by investigators at Harvard Medical School and the University of Copenhagen, in ...
"AFM technology has the potential to complement conventional biomarker tests and improve the early detection of Alzheimer's"
12-May-2023
During the course of Alzheimer's disease, protein fibrils appear in the spinal fluid of affected individuals. Empa researchers, together with the Department of Neurology at the Cantonal Hospital in St. Gallen, have now visualized the wide spectrum of protein aggregates from oligomers, ...

Doctors often use tongue depressors when peering in a patient’s mouth and throat. But what if that flat wooden spatula could actively evaluate the patient’s health? That’s the premise of an ecofriendly disposable sensor, reported in ACS’ Analytical Chemistry, that can check levels of glucose and ...
Researchers have created a new method to analyze cells in tissue samples from cancer patients using artificial intelligence
14-Apr-2023
A team from the Max Planck Institute for the Science of Light (MPL) and FAU has created a new, fast and precise method for clinicians to analyse cells in tissue samples from cancer patients without the need for a trained pathologist. They use artificial intelligence to evaluate the data their ...

03-Apr-2023
Scientists with entrepreneurial spirit: Researchers at the Bernhard Nocht Institute for Tropical Medicine (BNITM) have developed and patented a special technology for antibody detection, which will be marketed from April by a company founded specifically for this purpose. The board of the BNITM ...
New sensor technology breakthrough against the pandemic
31-Mar-2023
Infection and immunity status of the population are considered key parameters for handling pandemics. For this purpose, detecting antigens and antibodies is of great importance. The devices currently used for this purpose - what are known as point-of-care (POC) devices- are one option for rapid ...
The potential range of applications covers virtually all chemical, biological and medical analyses that can be performed in aqueous solutions
29-Mar-2023
A team led by ETH Zurich chemical engineers Chih-Jen Shih and Andrew deMello have developed a rapid test system made of smart graphene paper. It only costs a few cents per test strip, is easy to use but is as accurate as lab measurements. The approach will impact more than just disease ...
