EDI’s senior researcher Rihards Novickis is participating in a Quantum Cell Diagnostics Workshop in Erlangen, Germany. The workshop was dedicated to issues related to the application of quantum sensors for cell diagnostics, particularly cancer diagnostics.

Workshop participants discussed interdisciplinary fields such as quantum microscopy, microfluidics, magnetic nanoparticles, clinical studies, and certification requirements. EDI’s role in such interdisciplinary development is the design of high-performance electronics. The electronics developed by EDI must be capable of controlling and processing data from quantum sensors based on nitrogen-vacancy center defects in a diamond at unprecedented speeds.

EDI is already addressing the challenges of developing such systems within research projects such as A-IQ Ready, ARCHIMEDES, and Cynergy4MIE. However, the workshop examined a particularly complex case in which the sensor must detect particles in motion.
