PFASense: Fast, In-Field Testing for Forever Chemicals
PFASense is a next-generation diagnostic tool designed to detect toxic ‘forever chemicals’ directly at the source. By combining engineered protein sensors with a portable electrochemical device, it enables real-time, low-cost monitoring of water supplies—providing actionable insights to protect health and guide remediation. -
NeoSense: Sepsis Detection in Newborns
NeoSense is a new test that uses a tiny sample of saliva instead of blood, powered by advanced single-molecule detection and AI. -
ENDOx: Reimagining Endometriosis Care Through Precision Nanomedicine
Endometriosis is characterized by the abnormal growth of tissue resembling the endometrium outside the uterus. It is estimated to affect 10–15% of reproductive-aged women and is associated with significant morbidity, including chronic pelvic pain and infertility. With no curative treatments currently available, standard therapies rely on hormonal suppression or invasive surgery, both of which are... -
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. -
Blood Clot Dx
An ultra-sensitive triage test that identifies patients at risk for blood clots before they happen, enabling proactive treatment to reduce complications and deaths across a wide range of conditions. -
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.

Video/AnimationEngineering Living Materials with Peter Q. NguyenIn this episode of the CoreSpin Podcast Interview Series, host Misha Bagirov sits down with Wyss Senior Scientist Peter Q. Nguyen, Ph.D., to explore how synthetic biology can turn biofilms into useful materials, embed cell-free systems into wearables (like COVID-sensing masks), and program probiotics as future therapeutics. We also talked about the philosophy behind bioengineering,... -
Video/AnimationCan We Stop Stabbing Babies? – Salivary Diagnostics for Sepsis Screening in the NeonateEvery day, across the neonatal care unit, babies are being stabbed to collect their blood for sepsis tests. Adding to this dismal situation, diagnostics developed to assess sepsis in blood are very inaccurate, leading to the unnecessary prescription of antibiotics. Researchers at the Wyss Institute and Brigham and Women’s Hospital have created a more accurate... -
