Technology: Gene-Radar Diagnoses Diseases Faster (Video)
Nanobiosym (Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA) physicist, physician, founder, chairman, and chief executive officer Dr. Anita Goel talking about her iPad-sized device (dubbed Gene-Radar) that diagnoses HIV, malaria, tuberculosis, and some types of cancer …in less than an hour …for way less than costly lab diagnoses that take weeks or months to complete. Real-life Star-Trek tech.
We are getting that much closer to getting affordable healthcare (e.g. preventative medicine) driven by extraordinary technical advances. A quarter-million dollar grant and Nanobiosym is field testing in Rwanda – where low-cost, fast effective medical approaches are really needed. Bravo, Dr. Goel! And just wait ’til Nanobiosym gets Gene-Radar down to smartphone size. Doc-in-a-box equipment ready to deploy overnight ship anywhere anytime!
