Diagnostic Solution, Powered by Microfluidic Chip, Leads to Inexpensive Hemoglobin Measurements
Diagnostic Solution, Powered by Microfluidic Chip, Leads to Inexpensive Hemoglobin Measurements
SigTuple Technologies and the Indian Institute of Science demonstrated an AI-powered, imaging-based tool for the estimation of hemoglobin levels. The setup combines a microfluidic chip and an AI-enabled microscope designed for deriving the total, as well as differential counts, of blood cells. The method uses a microfluidic chip and reagent, costing less than $0.14, as well as a detector in the form of a conventional microscopy camera.

Polymer Layer 'Waveguide' Helps Luminescent Windows Generate Light Energy
An advancement to smart window technology incorporates luminescent solar concentrators (LSCs) into window or windowpane designs. A team from Rice University’s Brown School of Engineering designed its foot-square “windows” by placing a conjugated polymer between two clear acrylic panels. The technique aims to solve energy generation and efficiency issues that face building structures.

How the Kinetix sCMOS Camera Broke the Golden Rule of Compromise in Scientific Imaging How the Kinetix sCMOS Camera Broke the Golden Rule of Compromise in Scientific Imaging
Tue, Mar 23, 2021 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM EDT
Product and applications experts from Teledyne Photometrics are joined by leading imaging scientists to discuss how the latest developments in scientific CMOS (sCMOS) technology are opening up new possibilities in imaging. Presenters Dan Croucher, Ph.D. and Rachit Mohindra discuss how they are using the Kinetix to solve challenges from the high-speed collection of large, 3D volumes in live cells to the lowest light single molecule and super-resolution imaging. Presented by Teledyne Photometrics.

All Things Photonics
Frequency combs have revolutionized time and frequency metrology, making stops along the way to key developments in optical clocks, and, as it turns out, broadband spectroscopy. In a conversation that veers from interferometry to holography, and optoelectronics to solid-state lasing, Nathalie Picque from Max Planck Institute for Quantum Optics shares insights about her latest research. UCLA’s Aydogan Ozcan is back for the second part of a conversation about “Terahertz pulse shaping using diffractive surfaces.”
