Wireless Wearable fNIR Sensor
Since the initial discovery in 1977 that brain tissue transparency to NIR (Near-Infrared Spectroscopy) light allowed a non-invasive and continuous method of measuring tissue oxygen saturation using transillumination in neonates, a number of applications to non-invasively measure blood oxygenation in muscle and the circulatory system have been developed....

Self-oxygen generating biomaterials for large tissue engineering
Organ transplantation continues to increase, with 34,770 transplants performed in the US in 2017. Currently, organ transplantation is limited by donor dependence, high costs, and, long-term use of immunosuppressive medications which, in turn, correlates with significant morbidity and mortality. To overcome these limitations, tissue engineering and transplantation...
