Integrative Wireless Device for Remote Continuous Blood Biomarker Monitoring

To perform precision medicine in realtime at home, a device capable of long distance continuously monitoring target biomolecules in unprocessed blood under dynamic situations is essential. In this study, an integrative buffer free wireless device is developed to measure drug concentrations in patients blood in real time for remote clinical healthcare. To demonstrate its capability, the drug molecules (i.e., small molecule drug doxorubicin, DOX) are continuously measured in the unprocessed whole blood of live animals (e.g., rats). The dynamic changes of drug concentrations with sub minute temporal resolution are recorded for an extended period of time (8 hours). As an advance in remote diagnosis, this device would benefit the public by enabling long-distance precision medicine to prevent pandemics in advance.

Pre-seismic ionospheric anomalies detected before the 2016 Taiwan earthquake

On Feb. 5 2016 (UTC), an earthquake with moment magnitude 6.4 occurred in southern Taiwan, known as the 2016 (Southern) Taiwan earthquake. In this study, evidences of seismic earthquake precursors for this earthquake event are investigated. Results show that ionospheric anomalies in Total Electric Content (TEC) can be observed before the earthquake. These anomalies were obtained by processing TEC data, where such TEC data are calculated from phase delays of signals observed at densely arranged ground-based stations in Taiwan for Global Navigation Satellite Systems. This shows that such anomalies were detected within 1 hour before the event.
