UCF NanoScience Technology Center Professor Debashis Chanda developed an integrated optical sensor capable of detecting dopamine directly from an unprocessed blood sample. The sensor may serve as a way to efficiently quantify dopamine and use the results to screen for neurological disorders and conditions like Parkinson’s disease or depression.
