Oklahoma State University’s Unmanned System Research Institute has partnered with MaxQ to demonstrate the use of drone technology to deliver medical supplies. The project combines OSU’s drone expertise with MaxQ’s proprietary insulated medical containers to […]
Researchers from the University of North Carolina (UNC) and NC State have conducted a feasibility study of automatic external defibrillator (AED) delivery via drone to test whether drones could deliver the life-saving devices faster than […]
Duke University’s Pratt School of Engineering has established the Sherry and John Woo Center for Big Data and Precision Health – a big data analytics center that will support global research to advance precision medicine […]
A cross-disciplinary research team led by Subhanshu Gupta, assistant professor in Washington State University’s School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, has designed an implantable, biofuel-powered sensor that runs on glucose harvested from body fluids […]
The University of Waterloo’s School of Optometry and Vision Science now features a new virtual reality (VR) training lab funded through an $800,000 CAN investment by FYidoctors. The lab simulates a patient’s eye and provides […]
Researchers at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Eshelman School of Pharmacy have demonstrated an artificial-intelligence design that can teach itself how to design new drug molecules and has the potential to dramatically […]
Researchers at MIT have developed microscopic chemical sensors that can be sprayed as an aerosol mist. Spray-able sensors could someday be used to detect gas leaks, pollution from power plants, volatile organic compounds, and other […]
Medical professionals from the National Defense Medical College (NDMC) in Japan recently participated in a subject matter expert exchange with their counterparts at the Naval Medical Center San Diego (NMCSD). NDMC is Japan’s six-year university-level […]
The Ministry of Health of the Republic of Vanuatu and UNICEF have issued a request for tender inviting drone companies to bid on a contract to provide the logistical services to deliver vaccines via drones […]
Researchers at MIT have developed an ingestible sensor equipped with genetically engineered bacteria, that can diagnose bleeding in the stomach or other gastrointestinal problems. Called a “bacteria-on-a-chip”, the technology combines sensors made from living cells […]
