Chicago Biomedical Research Hub's First Published Research
Chicago biomedical research hub, backed by Mark Zuckerberg and Dr. Priscilla Chan, produces first published research on monitoring inflammation in real time using sensors implanted under the skin.
Key Points
- Inflammation is linked to various diseases and can be both beneficial and harmful
- Continuous monitoring of inflammation may lead to early disease detection and prevention
Pros
- Potential to track inflammation in real-time, aiding in early intervention for diseases
- Continuous monitoring of changes in certain proteins for better healthcare management
Cons
- Potential invasiveness of implanting sensors under the skin
- Ethical concerns regarding continuous monitoring of bodily functions
