UMBC’s Dipanjan Pan develops rapid diagnostic test for virus causing COVID-19

A team led by UMBC’s Dipanjan Pan has developed an experimental diagnostic test to rapidly detect the novel coronavirus causing COVID-19, potentially as early as the first day of infection. Researchers designed the test to show results visually, through a color change visible with the naked eye when the virus is present. Unlike other tests, it does not require advanced laboratory techniques or tools. Continue Reading UMBC’s Dipanjan Pan develops rapid diagnostic test for virus causing COVID-19
