Description
The
Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) Defense Sciences Office (DSO)
and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Center for Devices and
Radiological Health (CDRH) are hosting a workshop to discuss current
state-of-the-art and research opportunities in the area of in vivo analytical
devices capable of measuring biomarkers that characterize normal biological
processes, pathologic processes, and pharmacologic responses. In particular,
this workshop will focus on the technical challenges for developing implanted
or continuously applied devices capable of measuring and monitoring
clinically-relevant molecular biomarkers (small molecules, proteins, peptides,
and nucleic acids) to alert the user for clinical attention and/or to guide the
clinician for appropriate action.
