It's the most powerful force in our lives.
It turns the impossible into the inevitable.
And we have complete control over it.
I'm talking about serendipity.
Here’s something that most people don’t get:

What level of automation for your diagnostic assay? User-centric/minimal-no automation, automation with standard components/custom enclosure, full assay automation/custom components? https://t.co/3TWQRui96v
Visit Key Tech's booth #2382 at AACC on August 6-8 to discuss how Key Tech can help your diagnostics company with Precision Medicine, Functional Ultrasound, Managing Bubbles in Microfluidics, and Judging "Market Window" in Product Development. Learn more https://t.co/MOMrot0iXY
How’s this for a brain hack? Virtual Reality Therapy to treat pain. A multisensory experience that engages a person’s attention so completely, on a much deeper level, that there’s no room for processing pain sensations at the same time. https://t.co/Kvhb0kluOv
Scientists at UCSF tapped brain signals to create a device capable of out-putting complete phrases. The focus on brain-computer interfaces holds promise as a non-invasive solution for the paralyzed; ALS; epilepsy; etc. https://t.co/jhyVrfLYjB
First device to treat ADHD is approved by the FDA, offering a safe, non-drug option for treatment via trigeminal nerve stimulation. https://t.co/IE3l1kivQF
Healthcare hit hardest by cyberattack and data breaches last year. Incidents of hack or malware attacks increased by 10 percentage points, leaving smaller organizations especially at risk. https://t.co/JWUsJiVA9X
Researchers at Drexel and Trinity universities develop a conductive ink that is “orders of magnitude” more efficient than any similar materials. https://t.co/Rh8Fz7czAO
Medical devices, leveraging AI, that may continuously update themselves in response to real-world feedback, cause the FDA to reimagine its approach to reviewing for safety and effectiveness. https://t.co/7amqQWB1oC
1st smartphone-based system receives approval from FDA as Class II clinical-grade diagnostic; uses phone’s camera as a laboratory-grade scanning device: reduces costs, increases compliance; saves patients from kidney failure and the need for transplant. https://t.co/t9YguycP3X
. CTE — chronic traumatic encephalopathy, might soon be detectable via brain scans, per research conducted by Boston University. Until now, it could only be diagnosed post–mortem. https://t.co/G1lmrvyESN
Researchers at Binghamton University have now developed a flexible electronic sensor, which looks like a bandage, that can be stuck to the skin to continuously measure two chemicals indicative of wound healing, allowing undisturbed healing to occur. https://t.co/tqf3nEA6mA
Key takeaways from this year’s HFES conference include a rising demand for HF data, the use of VR and 3D visualization, and the need for more contextual research. KT Designers Josh Hartl and Chet Larrow provide their insights. https://t.co/ACaPg6y7eZ
Untether, a Toronto, Canada based firm, has developed a prototype device that transfers data between different parts of a chip 1,000 times more quickly than a conventional AI chip, gaining investment funding from Intel and others. https://t.co/aB6s75Kvas
Decoding the brain for breakthroughs in treatment; mobilizing AI for smart robots; environment and energy advancements - these solvable problems are progressing with the ongoing development of today’s technology. https://t.co/eUiQt9iH2n
Google rolls out IoT SDK for Microcontroller-Class Devices. Its aim is to let engineers rapidly prototype, profile, and test IoT products in a standard desktop environment before porting to an embedded target, shortening time to market. https://t.co/8wAr8fU4uU
Even when tackling very technical product development challenges, such as microfluidic system design, or novel detection technology de-risking, this article reminds us to remain deliberate in following a design-thinking approach.. https://t.co/4tNjnunoZi
Organ-on-a-chip devices are changing the capacity for drug testing and effectiveness. Personalized microphysiological systems that leverage “organoids” are being used to study how drugs work inside the body. https://t.co/2c8CAaJfqt
