This fully funded PhD will develop a rapid clinical decision-support technology for emergency bowel surgery. During an operation, surgeons may need to determine within minutes whether a length of bowel is viable. Existing laboratory biochemistry can provide relevant information, but the reported turnaround time is too long for this urgent decision. The project will create low-cost electrochemical sensors capable of producing quantitative, multi-marker measurements in minutes. It will use molecul...
