Хорхе Сото вместе с группой инженеров и учёных разрабатывают простой, общедоступный, неинвазивный анализ, который способен обнаружить ранние признаки различных видов рака. Прямо во время выступления на TEDGlobal 2014 он впервые демонстрирует рабочий прототип этой мобильной платформы.

Будущее ранней диагностики рака?

Cancer often goes undetected until it's too late, as shown by the story of an active, healthy woman whose diagnosis came only after six months of testing. While treatments have evolved, most people still lack access to early and accurate diagnostic methods. Harnessing microRNAs in the bloodstream, scientists have developed a noninvasive, low-cost blood test that can identify several cancers before symptoms appear. This open-source technology promises to democratize early detection and transform the fight against cancer.

Early Cancer Detection Enters the Digital Age With MicroRNA
