NIH Launches $1M Competition Targeting Global Health Via Hand-held Diagnostics

Facebook X LinkedIn Email
To spur the development of noninvasive, hand-held, digital technologies to detect, diagnose, and guide therapies for diseases with high global and public health impact, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) has launched a Technology Accelerator Challenge that will award $1 million in prizes. The challenge is focused on sickle cell disease, malaria, and anemia and is led by NIH’s National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering (NIBIB). The NIH challenge is designed to stimulate the development of a platform technology that could be used to rapidly screen large...Read full article

    remote sensing
    Remote sensing is a method of data collection and observation where information about objects, areas, or phenomena on Earth's surface is gathered from a distance, typically using sensors onboard satellites, aircraft, drones, or other platforms. This technique enables the monitoring and analysis of Earth's surface and atmosphere without direct physical contact. Remote sensing systems capture electromagnetic radiation (such as visible light, infrared, microwave, or radio waves) reflected or...
