Wearable sensors that detect and quantify biomarkers in retrievable biofluids (e.g., interstitial fluid, sweat, tears) provide information on human dynamic physiological and psychological states. This information can transform health and wellness by providing actionable feedback. Due to outdated and insufficiently sensitive technologies, current on-body sensing systems have capabilities limited to pH, and a few high-concentration electrolytes, metabolites, and nutrients. As such, wearable sensing systems cannot detect key low-concentration biomarkers indicative of stress, inflammation, metabolic, and reproductive status. We are revolutionizing sensing. Our electronic biosensors detect virtually any signaling molecule or metabolite at ultra-low levels. We have monitored serotonin, dopamine, cortisol, phenylalanine, estradiol, progesterone, and glucose in blood, sweat, interstitial fluid, and tears. The sensors are based on modern nanoscale semiconductor transistors that are straightforwardly scalable for manufacturing. We are developing sensors for >40 biomarkers for personalized continuous monitoring (e.g., smartwatch, wearable patch) that will provide feedback for treating chronic health conditions (e.g., perimenopause, stress disorders, phenylketonuria). Moreover, our sensors will enable female fertility monitoring and the adoption of more healthy lifestyles to prevent disease and improve physical and cognitive performance.
