Noninvasive wearable microsystems on flexible substrate for medical applications

WSSU Employee Events Abstract: Implementation of microsystems on flexible substrates has enabled a new class of wearable devices for diagnostic, therapeutic and assistive purposes. Conformal, flexible substrates are interfaced with soft tissues without causing damage or discomfort. This will allow noninvasive attachment of devices to the surface of fragile tissues such as infants’ skin. In this talk, we will introduce two noninvasive medical microsystems on flexible substrates: a smart, wireless, battery-free, chip-less patch for detection of cutaneous melanoma and a Band-Aid-like conductive hearing aid for pediatric patients. The patch will be placed on the epidermis layer for detection of abnormality in impedance of skin, and the flexible hearing aid will be attached to an infant’s skin behind the ear to bypass pediatric conductive hearing loss. These technologies are instrumental for detection of melanoma and early action on pediatric hearing loss. Biography: Dr. Moghimi has developed a body of research focused… Event Locator: 2025-AAWTSQ.
