The healthcare industry has transformed over the last twenty-five years due to the co-development of diagnostics along with state-of-the-art therapeutics and treatments; notably, this has led to the field of companion diagnostics. The best example of this is the prescribed use of insulin based on glucose levels monitored via test strips or the continuous glucose monitor. The future goal of medicine is to have truly personalized treatment protocols based on an individual’s biometrics, physiology, and exposure.
However, this goal requires further identification and quantitation of biomarkers and health exposures, both biological and chemical, both at the point-of-care as well as in real-time. Therefore, technologies are needed that can miniaturize current diagnostics to make them inexpensive, simple-to-use, and ideally wearable.
However, where and what to sense remains a critical question to solve, as each biofluid, including blood, sweat, saliva, tears, breath, and exhaled breath condensate contains a different profile of biomarkers. Additionally, biomarkers have vastly different physiochemical properties and abundances, which present different challenges as well as require a range of sensing modalities. Therefore, this course will be an overview of the “What, Where, and How of Sensing to Meet Current and Future MedTech Needs”. At the end of the course, a perspective of where these technologies can impact the future of health outcomes will be presented as well as key considerations for future technologies to gain commercial acceptance

SpectroChip: an Optical System-on-Chip Enabling Ultra-Portable Devices for Broad Industrial Sensing Applications
Kevin (Cheng-Hao) Ko received his Physics Ph.D. from State University of New York, Stony Brook (SUNY, Stony Brook) in 1995. During his thesis research, he worked at Beamline X1A of the National Synchrotron Light Source (NSLS) at Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL) to construct the world's first Mult-channel Scanning Photoemission Electron Microscope (SPEM) by focusing soft X-rays using a zone plate under the supervision of Prof. Janos Kirz. After receiving his Ph.D. degree, he was invited by Taiwan Nation Synchrotron Radiation Research Center (NSRRC) to lead a team to develop X-ray Microcopy technology in Taiwan. By 1999 Ko’s team had successfully developed the world’s most advanced SPEM. After that, Dr. Ko started to devote his efforts to developing the SpectroChip technology. After nearly 20 years of research and development, Ko’s team was finally able to mass produce the SpectroChip using wafer-based methodology and founded the company SpectroChip, Inc. This technology received 9 national best innovation awards in Taiwan and one international best application award in Asia. To enable further global business development of the SpectoChip technology, in 2023, Dr. Ko and Dr. Sean Lin founded SPU System Inc.
SpectroChip is a breakthrough technology that integrates all the functions of an optical spectrometer on a chip with the size of half an SD card.It is designed and fabricated using X-ray lithography and microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) technology.The current chip module includes the slit, micro concave grating and mirror and has a spectral range from 300 to 1000 nm. SpectroChip technology has the advantage of high performance with high sensitivity and accuracy while achieving chip-size miniaturization.This technology is being applied to the development of ultra-compact optical sensors and/or devices that can deliver real-time spectral data and analysis. Examples include novel optical sensor modules and ultra-compact, high-performance spectrophotometers capable of UV/VIS and florescence analysis for research lab and educational purposes.
In this webinar Dr. Ko will describe the SpectroChip technology, its integration into optical spectrum processing units, and real-world sensing applications in Health Care, Food Safety, and Semiconductor Processing and Metrology.
