Developing — prototypes scaling toward deployment
Why it matters
It enables fast, cheap, portable diagnostics and high-throughput experiments, bringing testing to the point of care and accelerating research.
Where it stands
Widely used in research and some diagnostics; robust, low-cost, mass-manufactured clinical devices are expanding.
How ASIZ approaches it
The discovery loop, applied.
Through the Living Systems center, ASIZ aims the discovery loop at lab-on-a-chip: frontier models survey the literature and simulate the possibilities, rank the experiments most likely to resolve the open questions, and partner labs run the decisive ones — with results shared openly.
