DESCRIPTION:Limei Tian\, PhD\, Texas A&M University\n\nWearable sensors can
  provide valuable information related to the health and disease states of 
 individuals. In this seminar\, I will discuss the recent progress we have 
 made in developing wearable sensors through the design of soft\, functiona
 l nanomaterials and nanocomposites. A wearable bioimpedance sensor made of
  conductive nanocomposites can enable cuffless and continuous blood pressu
 re monitoring. We also developed soft\, stretchable\, conductive hydrogels
  for high-performance electronic implants. We demonstrate the in vivo appl
 ication of hydrogel-based electronic devices for effective electrical stim
 ulation and high-quality recordings in live animal models. Another example
  is a wearable plasmonic paper-based microfluidic system that continuously
  and simultaneously quantifies sweat loss\, sweat rate\, and metabolites i
 n sweat. Plasmonic sensors based on surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (S
 ERS) are label-free and can identify the analytes of interest via the chem
 ical "fingerprint" information. The well-defined flow kinetics of paper mi
 crofluidic devices enable accurate quantification of sweat loss and sweat 
 rate in real time. Reliable quantification can be achieved when the device
 s are under strain and at high temperatures. These wearable sensors are so
 ft\, flexible\, and stretchable\, providing a robust interface with the sk
 in without inducing chemical or physical irritation.
