1. Wearable Sweat Sensors
Developing novel wearable biosensors and platforms for real-time detection of biomarkers in sweat, enabling personalized healthcare monitoring
We focus on the development of cutting-edge wearable sweat sensors for personalized healthcare. By combining novel biosensors with wearable electronic systems, we aim to revolutionize healthcare monitoring. These integrated systems have the capability to continuously and multimodally detect a wide range of biomarkers in sweat, providing real-time insights into an individual's health status. This technology holds great potential for early disease detection, performance optimization, and overall well-being. Through our research, we strive to advance the field of personalized healthcare and empower individuals to take control of their health.
