      I am trying to make a new imaging system that can look at the mechanical properties (like how stiff cells are) and the chemical properties (like is there any fat, collagen, etc) in tissue to better look at cancer.

      I am trying to develop a software tool which would detect various anomalies in the brain related to various diseases. My tool would help if the early diagnosis of disease.I believe it could greatly reduce the burden on clinicians given the increase in the incidence of disease and the number of patients to be attended.

      I’m trying to make 3D-printed microchips that can diagnose disease in people (like a doctor shrank onto a chip)

      We’re trying to make them cheap and small, because then you can post them out to people who can’t afford to go see a doctor in their country, or live too far away from one
