Minimally invasive monitoring of sleep for disease management. Sleep, diet and exercise are the three pillars of wellbeing with poor sleep associated with medical issues such as obesity and congestive heart failure. This project will advance sleep analysis by researching new ways of monitoring that are highly accurate and convenient, enabling physicians to improve the monitoring of significant health issues.
Quest for trace biomarkers in complex media through innovative nanoscale science of fluids, molecules, particles and light. This project will break new ground in the detection of rare molecules in biological samples by exploiting the interactions of fluids, molecules and particles confined in nanoscale channels. By revealing yet unknown biomarkers the project will bring a radical change in medical diagnostics and in the science and technology used to map the Human Proteome.
