NANOFLUIDIC ISOLATION AND QUANTIFICATION OF SPECIFIC EXTRACELLULAR VESICLES AND MACHINE LEARNING ANALYSIS TO AID CLINICAL DECISION-MAKING
… to diagnose and prognose neurological outcomes post-cardiac-arrest brain injury, and EVs from non-small-cell lung cancer cells to predict immunotherapy responses. To sensitively quantify EV subpopulations, our Droplet-based Extracellular Vesicle Analysis (DEVA) achieved limits of detection (LOD) …
