Support SensTech's Journey to SensUs 2024!

Donation protected
We are SensTech, a registered organization at Cornell University, with the goal for project team status in Spring 2024. We were founded by 4 ambitious undergraduate female engineers: Lily Blanton, Puloma Bishnu, Emily Chen, and Isabel Hettenbach. We are now composed of 15 highly motivated undergraduates* who are supported by five graduate and faculty advisors who specialize in a variety of fields.

SensTech is a participant in an international competition called SensUs, where teams from across the globe compete in the Netherlands to create the most cost-effective, user-friendly, and sensitive biosensor that can be used outside a lab. This competition is held at the end of August and the theme changes every year. The theme of 2023-2024 is continuous monitoring of creatinine for chronic kidney disease.

We are simultaneously conducting extensive literature review to prototype the biosensor starting January 2024 and fundraising for this upcoming 2023-2024 competition. As of right now, we are looking for any donations to help pay the team registration fee (also due early January 2024). In addition, we plan on using these funds for:
  • Research & development for building a truly competitive biosensor
  • Materials and supplies necessary to build and test the product
  • Travel budget including flights and stay over the course of the competition
We appreciate any and all support for our campaign and we hope you will join us on the journey towards a healthier future. Your contribution, regardless of its size, makes a meaningful impact.
