Human Skin 'Map' Created

Researchers from the UK Wellcome Sanger Institute and Australian Newcastle University used single cell sequencing and other genomics techniques to create a human skin atlas and uncover how human skin, including hair follicles, is formed. These insights could be used to create new hair follicles in regenerative medicine and skin transplants for burn victims.

Flexible Sensors Enable Health Monitoring

A research team led by Hokkaido University and the University of Tokyo in Japan has created a flexible multimodal wearable sensor patch and developed corresponding edge computing software. The software, which can be installed on a smartphone, analyzes the data collected by the sensors to monitor the user for conditions such as arrhythmias, coughs and falls.
