"Real-time Biosensors for Continuous Measurements of Specific Biomolecules in Live Animals" Abstract:  A biosensor capable of continuously measuring specific molecules in the bloodstream in vivowould give clinicians a valuable window into patients’ health and their response to therapeutics. Unfortunately, continuous, real-time measurement is currently only possible for a handful of targets (i.e.glucose, and oxygen) and existing platforms for continuous measurement are not generalizable for the monitoring of other analytes.  In this talk, we will present a universal real-time biosensor technology capable of continuously tracking a wide range of circulating molecules in living animals.  Our real-time biosensor requires no exogenous reagents and can be...
