CTC Microchip: A One-in-a-Billion Technology

NIBIB supports development of a new mouse model
To bring animal models closer to mirroring human physiology, researchers have recently been developing a humanized mouse model that harbors human liver tissue.

NIBIB supports development of preamplifiers of radiofrequency for MRI
One of the fastest growing clinical applications of the powerful medical imaging modality MRI is the parallel imaging method, where multiple radio frequency (RF) receiver coils are used in simultaneous signal processing to speed up imaging.

CTC Microchip: A One-in-a-Billion Technology
With enough sensitivity to detect and trap a single at-large cancer cell from among a billion blood cells, the impressive new Circulating Tumor Cell (CTC) microchip is showing much promise as it points the way to a new era in the fight against cancer.

Indo-US Collaboration Program on Low-Cost Technologies
Global management of health care demands fresh, innovative thinking to alleviate disparities on an international scale. In an effort to confront these new challenges, NIBIB has initiated a unique grant opportunity that aims to facilitate international collaborations focused on development of low-cost medical technologies between researchers in the U.S. and India.
