The device, developed by UCAM's Chemical Sensors Unit and announced in the sector's most important scientific journal, ACS Sensors, will improve both the diagnosis and care of patients in Intensive Care Units (ICU), avoiding invasive procedures such as the insertion of catheters into arteries.
Javier García Martínez, scientist and founder of the Academia Joven de España, is the first person to receive this recognition, at a conference that will be held annually.
The UCAM scientist has been awarded this recognition which is granted every year by the prestigious international journal Chemosensors.
ACS Sensors, one of the best journals in the world specialised in analytical chemistry and sensors, features the research of María Cuartero and Gastón Crespo on its cover. They are shown together with their talented team at UCAM HiTech, where they have created a wireless patch that transmits permanent information on the levels of pH, sodium, potassium, calcium, lithium and chloride in the interstitial fluid.
The UCAM researcher has also been appointed editor of the prestigious scientific journal Analytical Chemistry, of the American Chemical Society. Furthermore, the Analyst journal awarded her with the Analyst Emerging Investigator Lectureship Award.
