Self-assembly offers a unique resource for the preparation of discrete structures at the nano-
and microscale, which are either not accessible by other fabrication techniques or require …

Abstract Development of reliable, sensitive, selective, and miniaturized sensing
technologies is critical for health assessment and early diagnosis and treatment of …

One of the pillars of experimental science is sampling. Based on the analysis of samples,
estimations for populations are made. There is an entire science based on sampling …

With the advent of personalized medicine, there is a movement to develop “smaller” and
“smarter” microdevices that are able to distinguish similar cancer subtypes. Tumor cells …

We propose a multi-particle sorting method based on single optical fiber tweezer particle-
trapped signals. When particles are trapped to the optical axis, the instantaneous trapped …

Diagnosis of health disorders relies heavily on detecting biological data and accurately
observing pathological changes. A significant challenge lies in detecting targeted biological …

Background In view of the growing importance of nanotechnologies, the
detection/identification of nanoparticles type has been considered of utmost importance …

Optical fiber tweezers have been gaining prominence in several applications in Biology and
Medicine. Due to their outstanding focusing abilities, they are able to trap and manipulate …

Forecasting COVID-19 disease severity is key to supporting clinical decision making and
assisting resource allocation, particularly in intensive care units (ICUs). Here, we …
