Reducing Healthcare Costs -- New Microchip Technology Performs 1,000 Chemical Reactions At Once

Back in the vein of Individual device advances leading to a reduced cost in Healthcare. UCLA researches claim to have created a “microchip” which can perform and test “1,000 chemical reactions at once.” In theory this could help greatly in reducing costs in medical research. No direct evidence is give of this device reducing medical costs, as its still in development, but testing seems to show that it fulfills its intended purpose. The UCLA website definitely has vested interest in the discussing the success of the Universities own researchers but, as a respected institution it also has a vested interest in giving credible information so as not to undermine its other researchers.
