COPDx: Rapid diagnostic to triage acute exacerbations
A point-of-care test based on new biomarkers to rapidly identify COPD patients who are high risk of acute exacerbations (AEs), determine the cause, and guide treatment. -
Instrument-Free Molecular Diagnostics
A synthetic biology-based molecular diagnostics platform that enables the creation of low-cost, highly accurate tests for non-clinical settings. -
Extracellular Vesicles for Biomarker Detection
A non-invasive method to identify biomarkers of disease across cell types and develop diagnostics and monitoring systems. -
TORCH: Discovering Ovarian Torsion Biomarkers through Proteomics
Ovarian torsion (OT) is a serious medical condition where an ovary twists around the tissue that supports it, which can cut off blood supply to the ovary and sometimes the fallopian tube, causing severe pain. If blood flow is not quickly restored, the ovary might need to be surgically removed. Current diagnostic methods are often... -
Advancing Mammography with Protein-Biomarkers
Currently, about 10% of women who undergo mammograms have a false-positive result, leading to additional tests, including invasive biopsies. We’re developing a blood test to be administered at the time of breast imaging that could reduce the number of women who are encouraged to get biopsies but do not ultimately have breast cancer. Our study... -
Personalized Drug Dosing Diagnosis
Personalized dosing is the future of medication, moving towards treatments based on individual needs. Current dosing practices are based on average responses from limited clinical trials, overlooking variations due to gender, race, and genetics. Women are frequently excluded from this research and risk receiving dosages designed for men, which increases the chance of adverse effects....
