The SensUs competition is an annual event that brings together bright minds from universities worldwide to tackle pressing challenges in the field of biosensing technology. This prestigious competition encourages innovation, collaboration, and practical problem-solving skills among students and researchers.
Each year, the SensUs competition focuses on a specific theme related to biosensor development. Participants are tasked with designing and developing novel biosensors that address real-world issues. The competition emphasises creativity, technical proficiency, and the potential for real-world application.
For the current year, the challenge is to develop a continuous biosensor capable of monitoring specific biomarkers in real-time. Continuous biosensors are crucial for applications where ongoing measurement is essential, such as in healthcare for monitoring chronic conditions, environmental monitoring, and industrial processes.
