This research analyzes how point-of-care (PoC) diagnostics is evolving from simple tests to decentralized, connected, and clinically actionable testing platforms across hospitals, outpatient settings, homes, and pharmacies.The study assesses key technology shifts, including rapid molecular testing, lateral flow assays, microfluidics, biosensors, sm...

The conventional drug discovery and diagnostics technologies are unable to cope up with the current disease management practices. To this end, researchers have explored possibilities beyond life sciences. Specifically, they have figured out that the use of engineering principles to biological systems can revolutionize the drug discovery and diagnos...

Accelerated reforms due to COVID-19 and technologically advanced sample-in-answer-out portable, web-connected, encrypted devices that provide results in a few minutes changed the diagnostic healthcare industry. Decentralized testing empowers clinicians to make lifesaving decisions for the patient. It shortens supply chain lag time, saves costs of i...

Single cell genomic and proteomics tools have gained significant importance in the past 2 years. The year 2018 was particularly very active with a lot of platforms made available by both established life sciences tools companies and start-ups. 10X Genomics and Fluidigm have demonstrated the potential for high-throughput single cell applications. Th...
