In the evolving landscape of personalized health monitoring, there is a growing need for integrated solutions that provide comprehensive and real-time insights into an individual’s health. Students will learn how to address these needs through developing an integrated glucose and heart rate sensor, to enhance the overall health management experience for individuals with chronic conditions, leading to better outcomes and improved quality of life.

Back

Challenge:

Develop an integrated glucose and heart rate sensor that combines the functionalities of glucose measurement and heart rate tracking into a single, user-friendly device. This integrated solution should provide seamless and real-time data, allowing users to monitor both parameters simultaneously and gain insights into how changes in one may affect the other. The device should enhance data accuracy, improve user convenience, and offer actionable insights to better manage health conditions and improve overall wellness.

Deliverables:

  1. Design and build an integrated glucose and heart rate sensor that combines the functionalities of glucose measurement and heart rate tracking into a single, user-friendly device.
  2. 10-min project presentation

Dr Vincent has been teaching undergraduate course in Materials Science & Engineering since 2019, which primarily focused on laboratory-based modules. He has adopted an integrative and inquiry-based pedagogy in laboratory-based modules, and it has triggered the interest and encouraged undergraduates to enter into the research field. His research focus for his Ph.D. degree obtained from NUS MSE is on the fabrication of materials for energy storage devices.
