Analyzing Sweat via Microelectronic Fibers for Noninvasive Health Monitoring

Imagine a T-shirt that could analyze sweat, potentially alerting the wearer to any health abnormalities. Well, this is now closer to reality thanks to a research group’s recent innovation. Fibers and fabrics are ever present in our daily lives, and their origins are intertwined with the history of human civilization. While progress has been made, much remains unchanged for fibers and fabrics.
