Development of Paper-Based Microfluidic Electrochemical Biosensor for Early Detection of Acute Myocardial Infarction

The project’s goal is to investigate the use of a 2D reduced graphene oxide (rGO) based microfluidic channel driven electrochemical biosensor to detect AMI biomarkers. The device could be able to identify heart attacks before they happen. Therefore, it may be beneficial to reduce the enormous number of deaths brought on by this illness worldwide. Experts from the Universities of Waterloo in Canada and Jadavpur University in Kolkata will supervise this study. The researcher intends to work with top scientists and make use of cutting-edge resources by enrolling in the Mitacs Globalink program in order to gain a deeper understanding of this process. The results may result in important breakthroughs in medical technology and research. Shared resources, expertise, and the possibility of ground-breaking medical advancements are anticipated to be advantageous to both educational institutions.
