Mayo Clinic, Biodesign Institute collaboration examines link between gut bacteria and obesity


Overview

The primary aim of the Center for Bioelectronics and Biosensors is to create powerful bioassays for point-of-care diagnostics and a variety of advanced handheld, environmental field microanalyzers. By interfacing three advanced technologies — nanomaterials, biomaterials and electronic transducers — we have the ability to create enhanced biosensors and nanobioelectronics. Sensors provide real-time, on-site detection and often eliminate the need for sample collection, preparation and laboratory analysis. These new devices must be small, robust, fast, and low power to deliver the analytical information in a simple and inexpensive manner. Read More »
