Organic thin film transistors for sensors, bioelectronic interfaces and bionics
Organic electronic devices are flexible, light weight and stretchable, which makes them an ideal candidate for integrating and interfacing with soft tissues in biological systems. An attractive attribute of organic electronic devices is the solution processibility of constituent layers, since solution-processable devices have the potential to be printed into complex designs and shapes, leading to integrated devices with multiple functionalities.Particularly, organic thin film transistors (OTFTs) have the potential to offer low cost, easy to use and printable sensors for a …

Smart electrochemical aptamer biosensors for continuous monitoring cell health and function
Microphysiological systems including organ-on-chip platforms and 3D tissue models are transforming how we study human biology, enabling advanced in vitro models for tissue regeneration and drug testing that are far more physiologically relevant than conventional cell culture. However, a critical gap remains in how we monitor these living systems: current approaches rely on destructive or invasive methods that require cell sacrifice or physical sampling. Even the least invasive options are endpoint-based, capturing only a single snapshot in time making continuous, …
