Engineering a Solution to a Skin-Deep Problem of Blood Oxygen Measurements

Blood oxygen monitoring is one of the main methods to determine if COVID-19 patients need immediate medical attention, but the devices used for these measurements can be less accurate on darker skin tones. UC San Diego nanoengineers are engineering a solution to improve accuracy on all skin tones.
