New Methods for diagnostic tools and prevention is a wide and active area comprising groups across physics, chemistry, engineering and biomedicine. The area encompasses novel imaging techniques ( optical, ultrasound, atomic force microscopy-based, and molecular imaging ) and biosensing ( chemical, biological, including microfluidic-based devices and biocompatible, biodegradable sensors ). Biomarkers and physical and functional properties ( at the cell, tissue and organ level ) are used to guide personalized treatment and formulate preventive health measures. The groups of CSIC have contributed to results ranging from basic science to clinical translation and industry transfer.
