What if women's pain could be quantitatively assessed in real time with wearable sensors? 

Our objective is to develop tools and methods to quantify nociceptive pain and neuropathic pain. This project aims to quantify pain objectively based on a wide panel of biophysical and biochemical markers. The platform is based on a smart “band-aids:” a self-powered biochemical sensing patch to monitor a suite of chemical biomarkers in interstitial fluid, a non-invasive source of biomarkers. Importantly, the use of artificial intelligence and machine learning will be utilized to develop a single objective score of pain.
