Ground Truths
Shana Kelley: Biosensors to Track Proteins and Inflammation in Our Blood in Real Time

physicists, biologists, with engineers, with folks that do AI.

Ground Truths
Shana Kelley: Biosensors to Track Proteins and Inflammation in Our Blood in Real Time

It's very multidisciplinary.

Ground Truths
Shana Kelley: Biosensors to Track Proteins and Inflammation in Our Blood in Real Time

And we assemble these incredible teams to work away on hard problems.

Ground Truths
Shana Kelley: Biosensors to Track Proteins and Inflammation in Our Blood in Real Time

You know, like the problems that we've been talking about, sensing inflammation, watching it in real time.

Ground Truths
Shana Kelley: Biosensors to Track Proteins and Inflammation in Our Blood in Real Time

profiling inflammation, understanding autoimmune disease.

Ground Truths
Shana Kelley: Biosensors to Track Proteins and Inflammation in Our Blood in Real Time

That's our focus at the Biohub in Chicago.

Ground Truths
Shana Kelley: Biosensors to Track Proteins and Inflammation in Our Blood in Real Time

And, you know, I run an NIH-funded lab for 20 years, and it's wonderful to have that kind of support.

Ground Truths
Shana Kelley: Biosensors to Track Proteins and Inflammation in Our Blood in Real Time

But the support that we get at the Biohub allows us to move fast, fail fast too if we're going to, but, you know, really move fast towards problems that will have significant impact.

Ground Truths
Shana Kelley: Biosensors to Track Proteins and Inflammation in Our Blood in Real Time

That's correct.

Ground Truths
Shana Kelley: Biosensors to Track Proteins and Inflammation in Our Blood in Real Time

Yeah.

Ground Truths
Shana Kelley: Biosensors to Track Proteins and Inflammation in Our Blood in Real Time

John is a wonderful colleague at Northwestern and a bioelectronics extraordinaire.

Ground Truths
Shana Kelley: Biosensors to Track Proteins and Inflammation in Our Blood in Real Time

His team builds these amazing devices, a lot of flexible devices that can go on the skin.

Ground Truths
Shana Kelley: Biosensors to Track Proteins and Inflammation in Our Blood in Real Time

He's done a lot of work on devices for neonatal care and just delivering the kind of monitoring capability that you would want for babies in a NICU.

Ground Truths
Shana Kelley: Biosensors to Track Proteins and Inflammation in Our Blood in Real Time

So yeah, we're more on the molecular side and he's more on the physiological side.

Ground Truths
Shana Kelley: Biosensors to Track Proteins and Inflammation in Our Blood in Real Time

It's all very complimentary.

Ground Truths
Shana Kelley: Biosensors to Track Proteins and Inflammation in Our Blood in Real Time

But that was one of the reasons I found Northwestern to be a really attractive place to do my work because we are extraordinary in bioelectronics.

Ground Truths
Shana Kelley: Biosensors to Track Proteins and Inflammation in Our Blood in Real Time

Absolutely.

Ground Truths
Shana Kelley: Biosensors to Track Proteins and Inflammation in Our Blood in Real Time

So really everything we do at the Biohub, there's an AI element that is either accelerating it or driving it.

Ground Truths
Shana Kelley: Biosensors to Track Proteins and Inflammation in Our Blood in Real Time

And we see sensor data, I mean, you know, a continuous stream of molecular data that

is something that will be very powerful for the development of models.
