Light-based virus detection – CES 2015

The video introduces a novel technology using light-based detection for identifying viruses, proteins, and genomic targets. It highlights its application in point-of-care settings, particularly for viral hemorrhagic fevers like Ebola, Lhasa, and Marburg, with potential extensions to malaria, dengue, and yellow fever. The technology also explores applications in Alzheimer's, cancer, and diabetes. The process involves using a simple chip or microfluidic cartridge to analyze blood samples, providing rapid results without the need for extensive lab support.
