The adhesive patch, about the size of a quarter, is simple to manufacture and intended for once-a-day use.
The study, published in Nature Biomedical Engineering, describes research conducted on mice and pigs. The research team, led by Zhen Gu, PhD, professor of bioengineering at the UCLA Samueli School of Engineering, is applying for FDA approval of clinical trials in humans...
