Lensless imaging enables cost-effective phage-therapy diagnosis
Leti scientists have demonstrated a lensless imaging technique that could be implemented in cost-effective and compact devices in phage laboratories to accelerate phage-therapy diagnosis.
The growing number of drug-resistant bacterial infections worldwide is driving renewed interest in phage therapy. The WHO has warned of “a slow tsunami” of antibiotic resistance that by 2050 could result in 10 million annual deaths from antibiotic-resistant infections.
Based on the use of a personalized cocktail composed of highly specific bacterial viruses, phage therapy employs bacteriophages, a form of virus, to treat pathogenic bacterial infections. Following promising phage-therapy clinical studies treating infection of burn wounds, urinary tract infections and other problems caused by antibiotic-resistant bacteria, a growing body of evidence has built a consensus among scientists that there is synergism between phages and

New Bluetooth-Low-Energy-Based Wireless Neuronal Recording System
Scientists have now created a compact, lightweight, Bluetooth-low-energy-based wireless neuronal recording system.
The wireless system was developed by researchers from the Department of Electrical and Electronic Information Engineering, Department of Computer Science and Engineering, Department of Applied Chemistry and Life Science, and the Electronics-Inspired Interdisciplinary Research Institute (EIIRIS) at the Toyohashi University of Technology.
The weight of the system is less than 3.9 g and it measures 15 × 15 × 12 mm
