ElectroMed project is featured in new European Innovation Council newsletter dedicated to Covid

The ElectroMed project led by Dr Vihar Georgiev, Senior Lecturer (Electronic and Nanoscale Engineering), has been selected for the first EIC newsletter dedicated to pathfinder projects dedicated to the fight against Covid-19.

ElectroMed is a Pathfinder Open project developing an innovative technology able to detect the interaction between immune receptors and short peptides in a fast, flexible and inexpensive peptide microarray platform. The technology holds a strong potential to fight Covid-19 by detecting if a person has acquired immunity using short peptide targets (epitopes) for SARS-CoV-2 specific antibodies. https://www.electromed.eu
