It has been a strange year w/ 4 of my students defending by zoom, without the usual group celebration & signing of @VeuveClicquot bottle. With this socially-distanced send off to Dr @Mingfu_Chen, who joins @TruvianSciences, we remain hopeful to gather w/ our group in person soon.

Presentations for @Materials_MRS #F20MRS meeting are up, and it’s such an easy format to experience the conference! You can catch me, talking about Hydrogel-Embedded Sensor, at F.SM02 https://t.co/6vE4p7oQNy

It’s always been a dream for me to be able to use my engineering background to help people. When I look at the remarkable individuals at UB CBE, including the people who have been featured in The Catalyst previously, being included in this year’s newsletter is truly humbling.

[Chemical and Biological Engineering | UBuffalo @ubcbe11]

Presenting the 2020 Catalyst-Our annual newsletter includes all the news you need to know. UB CBE faculty & students thrive in the face of myriad challenges and opportunities, creating breakthrough research in health, energy and the environment. https://t.co/fIeyTaOOf6

Whereas “prevalence” is the number of instances of a disease or condition in a specified population at a designated time point. BU Updates COVID-19 Dashboard Based on Total People Tested https://t.co/KnatXleLG1

[Mingfu Chen, PhD @Mingfu_Chen]

Two values essential to properly evaluating the performance of a diagnostic test: “Incidence” is the number of instances of the disease or condition that occurs in a specified population during a given period of time (such as weekly).

Congrats to @Mingfu_Chen, @ChloeGrazon, our colleagues @ @BUexperts & across the Atlantic on the publication of “Hydrogel-Embedded Quantum Dot–Transcription Factor Sensors for Quantitative Progesterone Detection in @ACS_AMI 👉🏻 https://t.co/yDDlPni8pw 👈🏻 @DrKlapperich @GalaganLab

[Mingfu Chen, PhD @Mingfu_Chen]

This review features many Firsts in the wearable sensor field:The first enzymatic wearable Nicotine sensor (Ali Javey);the 1st microneedle-based Alcohol sensing(Joe Wang);the 1st microneedle-based extracellular in vivo Penicillin sensing(Alison Holmes).An enjoyable read!
