Engineers at MIT have developed a sweat-proof electronic "skin." The design could lead to adaptable, wearable monitors for monitoring skin cancer and other diseases.

A skin sensor developed at MIT is as thin as adhesive tape and sends signals - without a chip or battery. The device can vibrate in response to a person's heartbeat or the salt in their sweat, as well as generate a readable electrical signal.

Geneva researchers have discovered a molecule that indicates diabetes even before the first symptoms appear. To identify it, they used machine learning methods to analyse thousands of molecules.

An international team led by researchers at NTU in Singapore has developed a universal connector that allows stretchable devices to be assembled easily and quickly using the Lego principle.

Tiny micro- and nanoplastic particles (MNP) can not only enter the body through food, as is well known, but can even reach the brain.

A patch developed by Swiss researchers provides early warning of leaks at sutures in the gastrointestinal tract. The novel patch should significantly reduce the risk of life-threatening complications after abdominal surgery.

AI can recognise emotions based on facial expressions. In one study, AI even performed better than trained therapists.
