A research team led by John Rogers and Guillermo Ameer has developed a miniature, wearable sensor that detects wound infections before visual symptoms emerge — a breakthrough that could dramatically reduce severe complications, including amputations, for diabetic patients and others living with chronic wounds.
QSI RENU is headquartering a new research center aimed at uncovering a hidden layer of information within the human genome. The Center for Genome Intelligence Engineering (GENIE) is being established through a $30 million National Science Foundation award and will be led by QSI RENU member Vadim Backman.
QSI RENU members Jacqueline Burke and Daniel Borja-Cacho are using nanoparticles to rehabilitate donor livers that would otherwise be discarded. WGN News covered their collaborative project, which could significantly expand the pool of organs available for transplantation.
Directed by Igor Efimov, the Cardiovascular Engineering and Technology Center (CVET) will focus on advancing the fundamental understanding of cardiac arrhythmias, as well as developing biological and device-based therapeutic strategies to preserve or regenerate heart tissue.
