The growth of novel personal medical sensing technologies, many of which use Bluetooth, could soon change this.

the Scanadu Scout is described perhaps best as something approaching a real version of the medical tricorder wielded by Star trek doctor Leonard"Bones#Mccoy.

The raw medical data, which is sent wirelessly via Bluetooth to an Android app, can be forwarded automatically to doctors.

##This could really be a game-changer for a lot of applications including diagnostics##say James Collins who is a professor of biomedical engineering and medicine at Boston University and a core faculty member at Harvard s Wyss Institute.##

and lead to a type of medicine where physicians treat disease and alleviate pain with electronics instead of drugs. e need to make these devices as small as possible to more easily implant them deep in the body

and drug delivery systems to apply medicines directly to affected areas, Poon says. The work creates the potential to develop lectroceuticaltreatments as alternatives to drug therapies,

In the experiment, Poon used her midfield transfer system to send power directly to tiny medical implants.

This transformative technology enables highly specific low-power high-throughput physiological sensing that can be multiplexed to detect a number of significant disease-specific factors in real time commented Scott Hammond executive director of UCSB's Translational Medicine

In essence continued Hammond the promise of true evidence-based personalized medicine is finally becoming reality. This demonstration is said quite remarkable Andras Kis professor at École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne in Switzerland and a leading scientist in the field of 2d materials and devices.

You also fail to mention just how many advances in modern medicine we were given by the Germans.

And yes a lot of medical breakthroughs came from the horrible experiments done by the Nazi's

#New synthetic technology for medicines and fine chemicals A University of Tokyo research group has succeeded in synthesizing (R)- and (S)- rolipram, the active component of a medicine,

in high yield with high selectivity by an innovative catalyzed flow fine synthesis instead of the traditional batch method used in the production of 99%of medicines.

the active components of medicines as well as other fine chemicals are synthesized by a repeated batch reaction method, in

Professor Kobayashi says"This new technology can be applied to not only other gamma aminobutyric-acids acids and medicines but also various chemicals such as flavors, agricultural chemicals,

Very recently, we reported on 3d printed icrofishrobots that can be injected directly into our blood to perform complex medical tasks.

and eventually be implemented successfully in medical applications. Posted in 3d printing Applications (adsbygoogle=window. adsbygoogle. push({}

Its applications range from medicine, advanced energy, electronics, aerospace design and many others. Despite these groundbreaking characteristics,

and delivering medicinal products to hard-to-reach places within the body. The leaders of this project, Professors Shoachen Chen and Joseph Wang, recognized that most microrobots that have already been produced are unable to perform more advanced tasks due to their simply-shaped designs and inorganic physical make-ups.

helping medical professionals gather their diagnosis from swimming throughout the body with these microfish. 3d printing enthusiasts are amazed oftentimes by

processes done in a medical testing lab for example, purifying samples, mixing ingredients, capturing bacteria can be done with material about the size of a deck of cards.

the device could have applications in voice-command electronics, medical sensing devices that use waves, like ultrasound,

and record subsequent images which a medical professional can then download and add to the complete diagnostic data Set in testing thus far,

the researchers believe that the feasibility of the propulsion model will move their creation toward the next set of experiments and onward to eventual deployment in working medical applications.

Biochemical engineer Christina Smolke and colleagues had been working on the problem of synthesizing opioids and other plant-based medicines in the lab for about a decade.

we might also adapt cells to groundbreaking new uses in other realms of medicine, or even entirely different fields, such as architecture, art and fashion.

"displays the development of a powerful synthetic method that enables rapid access to para-functionalized benzene derivatives to construct libraries of bioactive compounds that are useful in medicinal chemistry.

In the medical field, the substance has shown activity against cancer cell lines. In cosmetics, people appreciate the good smell, in soft drinks a fine, subtle taste.

This method was found to deliver medicine to the brain with few side effects. About one out of every hundred Norwegians develop schizophrenia or autism in the course of their lifetime.

who have developed a new device designed to improve medicine delivery to the brain via the nose.

Medicine through the nosebecause of oxytocin role in social behaviour, researchers have explored the possibility of administering the hormone for the treatment of mental illness.

Breathing helpsoptinose uses a new technology to distribute medicine to the brain, making use of the user breath to propel medicine deep into the nasal cavity.

The device administers oxytocin high up into the patient nasal cavity. When the medicine is targeted deep inside the nose,

it enables brain delivery along nerve pathways from the uppermost part of the nasal cavity. Conventional nasal spray devices are suited not to consistently deliver medicine high up enough into the nose.

The device also expands the nasal cavity, facilitating nose-to-brain medicine delivery. As the user exhales into the device,

this closes the soft palate and prevents the medicine from being lost down the throat. Since less medicine is lost along the way

patients can take smaller doses and accordingly experience fewer side effects. May yield new treatmentsthe next step in the research is to carry out the same tests on people with mental illness. e are now running tests in volunteers diagnosed with autism spectrum disorders,

says Dr Quintana. e hope that this research project is the first step in the development of a series of new medicines that may be of great help to more people with mental illness,

concludes Professor Andreassen. Funding: The research was supported in part by the Indiana State department of Health (Grant#204200 to RS), National institutes of health (Grant#NS073636 to RS),

The new imaging method could make future medical applications more cost-effective and space-efficient than is possible with today technologies.

The researchers say that their technology is articularly interesting for medical applications as it can distinguish between differences in tissue density.

Devising a way to prevent blood clotting without using anticoagulants is one of the holy grails in medicine said Don Ingber M d Ph d.
