Wearable sensors play a crucial role in realizing personalized medicine, as they can continuously collect data from the human body to capture meaningful health status changes in time for preventive intervention. In this talk, I will introduce a flexible biosensing system for in-situ perspiration analysis, which can selectively and accurately measure a wide spectrum of sweat analytes (e.g., metabolites, electrolytes, heavy metals, substances, and hormones). This platform allows us to gain real-time insight into the sweat secretion and gland physiology. To demonstrate the clinical value of our wearable sweat sensing platform, human subject studies were performed toward fitness monitoring, metabolic disorder monitoring, disease diagnosis, and drug monitoring. Such lab-on-skin platform opens the door to a wide range of personalized monitoring and diagnostic applications.
