New frontiers in point of care diagnotics – trends in genetics, biosensors and microfluidics
Almost precisely a decade ago, the US National Institutes of Health remarked that point-of-care (POC) testing might offer a paradigm shift towards predictive and pre-emptive medicine.Recent advances in areas such as genetics testing, biosensors and microfluidics continue to enthuse proponents of such scenarios. However, several challenges still need to be addressed, along the way. Quicker, […]
