About this research area
Our translational research is anchored by programmatic grants from the Food and Drug Administration and the National Science Foundation. The focus is on the development of low-cost, early-detection diagnostic platforms, minimally invasive interventions and engineered systems for health monitoring and disease or injury prevention.
- Minimally invasive fetal & pediatric interventions
- Handheld, wearable sensing and imaging platforms
- Injectable and implantable technologies
- Digital health for humans and animals
