Excellent post.
Also, go to Nokia sensing challenge X-Prize winner, Dr. Chan and his team at dna medical institute.com We have MAJOR REAL competition coming next year. NASA, NIH, and Bill Gates Foundation have backed these heavy hitter team folk. Their device is tested (a tricorder universal blood mobile sensor in compact form. Dr. Chan is huge innovator with numerous successes.
His tech device can do 100s of disease monitoring within say 10 minutes with single drop of blood or bodily fluids. He developed gen;omicd principle of single molecule
flourscent DNA scanning.
