Microwave Biosensing for Point-of-Care Health Monitoring
About the Talk
Dr. Apala Banerjee will discuss how planar RF resonators detect key biomarkers—IL-6 for sepsis monitoring and lactate for metabolic monitoring—connecting resonator design, surface functionalization, microfluidics, and high-frequency measurements to practical wearable and point-of-care sensing systems.
• RF resonator design & biosensing principles.
• IL-6 detection for early sepsis warning.
• Lactate sensing in sweat for metabolic monitoring.
• Microfluidic integration & surface functionalization.
• Toward wearable & remote point-of-care diagnostics.
