Ali Javey’s team’s Wearable Sweat Bio-sensor

Prof. Ali Javey and his team’s presentation at the 2016 International Electron Devices Meeting (IEDM) is profiled in an EE Times article titled “Sweating Big Human-Body Data Challenge.” This year, IEDM papers  explored a number of technologies to make flexible and printable electronics,  and Prof. Javey’s team’s paper stood out. Unlike conventional wearable devices, the team has zeroed in on the idea of attaching sweat biosensors — like a patch — on the body to collect sweat as it appears, for “real-time perspiration analysis.”
