I-Corps: Translation potential of a new Surface-Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (SERS) substra — NSF Award to Northern Arizona Univers

The broader impact of this I-Corps project is the development of a method to detect early stages of cancer. Cancer causes the death of more than 600,000 Americans each year. Researchers would like to develop a test to identify cancer biomarkers in blood or saliva that detects early onset of the disease as survival rate

AbstractThe broader impact of this I-Corps project is the development of a method to detect early stages of cancer. Cancer causes the death of more than 600,000 Americans each year. Researchers would like to develop a test to identify cancer biomarkers in blood or saliva that detects early onset of the disease as survival rate increases with early detection. Research demonstrates that Raman spectroscopy, a commonly used method to provide a structural fingerprint of molecules, can identify biomarkers of
