Joseph Wang (born in 1948) is an American biomedical engineer and inventor. He is a Distinguished Professor, SAIC Endowed Chair, and former Chair of the Department of Nanoengineering at the University of California, San Diego, who specialized in nanomachines, biosensors, nano-bioelectronics, wearable devices, and electrochemistry.
Wei Gao is a Chinese-American biomedical engineer who currently serves as a professor of medical engineering at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech). [1] Gao has been a professor at Caltech since 2017 and is an associate editor of the journals Science Advances, Biosensors and Bioelectronics, npj Flexible Electronics (), Journal on Flexible Electronics (), and Sensors & Diagnosis ...
The World Congress on Biosensors continues today. According to the Journal Citation Reports, the journal has a 2023 impact factor of 10.7 [1] 5-Year Impact Factor: 9.323 [2] Biosensors & Bioelectronics is the principal international journal devoted to research, design, development, and application of biosensors and bioelectronics.
Research into POC diagnostic tests has resulted in the development of microfluidic biosensors capable of early diagnostic clinical analysis of cancer-associated miRNAs, which produce cost- and time-efficient results with increased sensitivity and specificity over traditional methods. [56]
Electrochemical aptamer-based (E-AB) biosensors is a device that takes advantage of the electrochemical and biological properties of aptamers to take real time, in vivo measurements. An electrochemical aptamer-based (E-AB) biosensor generates an electrochemical signal in response to specific target binding in vivo [ 3 ] The signal is measured ...
Another cancer related application, though still in mice probing stage, is the use of peptide-coated nanoparticles as activity-based sensors to detect lung cancer. The two main advantages of the use of nanoparticles to detect diseases is that it allows early stage detection, as it can detect tumors the size in the order of millimeters.
[77] [78] Development of wearable biosensors is among such studies. [79] The elimination of lab testing can save time and money. An application of a POCT biosensor can be for the testing of HIV in areas where it is difficult for patients to be tested. A biosensor can be sent directly to the location and a quick and easy test can be used.
Sensors is a monthly peer-reviewed, open access, scientific journal that is published by MDPI.It was established in June 2001. The editors-in-chief are Vittorio M.N. Passaro, Assefa M. Melesse, Alexander Star, Eduard Llobet, Guillermo Villanueva and Davide Brunelli. [1]
