Microchip Can Electronically Detect Covid Antibodies in Just a Drop of Blood

The approach is simple, cheap, and even can quantify antibody levels in the body

An image of a colon organoid captured by a new system developed in Shu Jia’s lab that can capture dynamic, 3D information about the lab-grown cultures of tissues in a single image. The raw image was captured in 0.1 seconds. The coloration represents depths of 60 and -60 micrometers from the focal plan to depict the organoid in three dimensions.
