Tech Transfer: Blood Filter for Cancer Detection

Guests: Robert Davis, Professor of Physics at Brigham Young University Nick Morrill, BYU Nanotechnology Research Group Spencer Rogers, works in BYU’s Technology Transfer office which license and markets innovations made on campus. More information about technology developed at BYU is available at techtransfer.byu.edu We’re surrounded by filters—in our furnaces and water systems and cars. And even in the kitchen, where we use strainers and sieves to drain and purify. A team of researchers here at BYU is working on a filter with holes ten times smaller than the hair on your head. Microscopic holes.
