🧬Breakthrough in quantum sensing for healthcare
QT Sense was founded in February 2024 as a spinout from University Medical Center Groningen. Prof. Dr Romana Schirhagl, an expert in quantum sensing at the single-cell level, and the company’s chief scientific officer, co-founded the company with Dr. Deepak Veeregowda, and Hoang Nguyen, chief operating officer with over 10 years of experience in finance, investments, and operations.
Its technology is based on the interaction between specially prepared nanodiamonds and individual cells. By monitoring the brightness of light emitted from these nanodiamonds, researchers can measure cellular activity in real time at a single-cell resolution. This capability is particularly valuable for understanding oxidative stress, which plays a critical role in a range of diseases, from cancer to inflammatory conditions..... [read more...]
