new technology as this one, Shaina.

Now, I want to sign up as patient zero when you're ready, okay?

You got it.

I want to know my inflammation status in real time.

All right.

Now, this is a part of something that is really extraordinary, which is your Chan Zuckerberg Initiative biohub.

There's only a few of these biohubs in the country.

And back in 2023, you were selected in a competition,

of many cities that wanted to tap into the support of CZI to do this.

So can you tell us about the Biohub and how it helps enable this type of work?

Yeah, well, it's great that you get that added support, especially at a time when it's hard to count on NIH, the way things are headed or going.

But also, there's another force there, a major force besides your team, which is another pioneer in sensors, John Rogers.

who he was at U of I, which I guess is also part of your consortium.

But he's more on the physiology sensors, obviously.

So I look at what's going on in Northwestern, and I may be off on this, but it seems to be the capital of the world of sensors, futuristic sensors.

And yours is one, I think, that is unparalleled.

I don't know anyone else who's been working on

the ability to track proteins.

It could be tracking DNA, RNA, things that we've not been able to do in the past.

And whereas the work that John's been doing, as I understand it, is largely physiology-centered.
