Bioinspired sensor monitors your metabolism in real time
Researchers at University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) have developed a tiny sensor that can help keep tabs on metabolites – substances produced or used when your body breaks down food, medication, or even its own fat and muscle in metabolic processes – far more extensively than current…
Researchers at University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) have developed a tiny sensor that can help keep tabs on metabolites – substances produced or used when your body breaks down food, medication, or even its own fat and muscle in metabolic processes – far more extensively than current methods. This tech could unlock new ways to detect and manage diseases and disorders, track patients' responses to treatment, and accelerate the development of more effective drugs. We’re finally equipped to test important hypotheses that lacked key data – helping us better understand how gut activity impacts overall health, from driving inflammation and affecting mental well-being to shaping chronic disease progression.”
