Inhibition of Airway Hyperresponsivenes by Interleukin 31 Receptor Alpha in Asthma (2023-038)
Asthma is a chronic inflammatory airway characterized by airway hyperresponsiveness (AHR), airway inflammation, and goblet cell hyperplasia. AHR or the excessive response of the airways to a variety of stimuli is one of the cardinal features of asthma. AHR is a major cause of hospitalization, morbidity, and morality in allergic asthma; however, the...

Non-Invasive Hydrogen Monitoring Device to Assess Gut Health (2021-114)
Humans do not produce hydrogen gas; however, many microbes found in the human gut do. The hydrogen produced from gut microbiota can have beneficial effects, but an excess of hydrogen can also have harmful effects on the human host, as it is proposed to be associated with various gastrointestinal disorders.
Hydrogen gas produced by the microbes in the...

Nanopipette Device for Label-Free, Rapid Liquid Cancer Biopsy (117-042)
Early cancer detection is crucial for survival. Many cancer screening methods and biopsies, though, require complex and invasive surgical procedures causing cancers to go undetected during the early stages. Exosomes, or cell-secreted nanoscale extracellular vesicles, contain biomarkers that indicate cancers and other diseases, and they are constantly...
