🔬 Adaptyx Biosciences, a Stanford University spinout, has presented the first continuous, multi-day measurement of free #cortisol in humans at the American Diabetes Association’s Scientific Sessions. The #wearable #patch sensor reads cortisol from dermal interstitial fluid, capturing the hormone’s daily rhythm with minute-level resolution – something conventional blood, saliva, and urine tests cannot do. 💬 “Cortisol is one of the most consequential hormones in the human body, and glucocorticoid receptors are present in nearly every cell. Clinical care has treated the downstream effects, including diabetes, hypertension, and depression, without ever being able to monitor the upstream signal driving much of the response. Adaptyx built the device that finally does.” Vijit Sabnis, Adaptyx Biosciences Co-founder & CEO 📰 Full story: https://lnkd.in/dz8gmD-6 #science #research #hormones #femtech #healthtech #womenshealth #womenshealthinnovation #hormonalhealth #innovation
