• FernScore: Diagnosing bacterial vaginosis for reproductive health
  Vaginal infections, especially bacterial vaginosis (BV), are a major concern for women’s health. Current diagnosis methods are subjective and often miss the mark, particularly for asymptomatic women. Researchers have developed a promising new approach using a test that analyzes the fern-like patterns formed when cervical mucus dries on a slide. Healthy mucus forms distinct fern...
• MenoStrengthRX: Strength Training in Menopausal Women
  Muscle loss is a major concern for women as they enter perimenopause, as it can cause an increased risk of diabetes, heart disease, and other health conditions. We’re developing wearable sensors and using machine learning to guide and track strength training at home. By offering personalized guidance without the high cost of personal trainers, the...

  Can We Stop Stabbing Babies? – Salivary Diagnostics for Sepsis Screening in the Neonate
  Every 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...
