In the 21st century, infectious diseases are still burdening our society and cause more than 20,000 lives lost daily. Early detection is essential for timely treatment and prevention. Existing diagnostic methods face limitations in long reaction time, high costs, or require specialists to conduct labour-intensive procedures. MicroMag is dedicated to weaving engineering research and medical applications together. In particular, we focus on preventing infectious outbreaks and saving lives by providing instant, easy and accurate diagnoses through our innovative microrobotic technology.
