Point-of-care diagnostic devices allow clinicians to deliver faster diagnoses, improving patient outcomes and saving lives. “Microfluidic chips” are a critical component of these devices, but getting these chips from R&D to the market is challenging. Our researchers are accelerating that transition. Bringing medical devices to the market quicker
