Traumatic injuries account for 30% of all life years lost in the US and is the leading cause of death for people under 46 years of age. Uncontrolled bleeding or hemorrhage constitute 30-40% of trauma related deaths and are considered to be a major cause o

Due to recent advances in the field of microelectronics, there is an increasing demand for micro-sized energy storage devices that are capable of being incorporated into and provide energy for MEMS devices. In order to continue to enable this technological growth, and the benefits that stem from it, the storage density of electrical energy must also continually be improved, especially with respect ...

The twenty-first century has seen a global rise in bacterial infections exhibiting antimicrobial-resistance (AMR). More than ninety percent of chronic wounds contain microbial biofilms that exhibit AMR, and the bacteria responsible for several of these recalcitrant infections are called ESKAPEE pathogens. Eradicating ESKAPEE pathogenic infections is challenging, but bacteriophage (phage) therapy i ...

percapacitors provide energy densities comparable to thin film batteries, high power densities, ultrafast recharge, and long cycle lives for applications requiring high duty cycle and pulse power output.  Micro-supercapacitors (MSC) are the most promising energy storage technology for integration with energy harvesting, via micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS), and microelectronics integrated ...
