Non-invasive optical methods for the detection of blood analytes in the near infrared spectrum

30 September 2025
HOPE Scholar, *Josephine Dixon*, has completed her doctoral thesis. Josephine developed and tested a novel sensor technology aimed at non-invasive detection of key blood analytes—glucose, creatinine, and lactic acid—critical for managing diabetes, kidney disease, and septic shock. Her research shows that while the sensor (SAv2) offers promising insights into light-tissue interactions and analyte detection, current limitations in signal quality and sensitivity mean it’s not yet reliable for clinical use. The work provides valuable direction for future innovation in wearable health monitoring.
