TL;DR: A review of three commonly used classes of chemical sensor technologies as applicable to implementation in portable, handheld field instruments is presented in this article, where the authors evaluate three of the major classes of compact chemical sensors for portable applications: (solid-state) chemiresistors, (solidstate) CHEMFETs, and (optical) surface plasmon resonance sensors (SPR).

TL;DR: In this article, a multiple perspectives methodology drawing from innovation, cross-disciplinary, and boundary work frameworks was used to make visible multiple facets of engaging future engineers, one that emphasizes epistemological development and social justice, new configurations on engineering thinking and connecting to the formative years of development.

TL;DR: A review of photodetectors for optical detection in biological applications is presented in this paper, where the authors provide an overview of the performance metrics and trade-offs among popular photoderivers in order to facilitate an easier match among the photoderectors, biological stimulus, and optical pathway.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the links between multiple levels of belonging and forms of behavioral and emotional engagement among STEM undergraduates in five geographically and culturally distinct institutions in the United States and found that belonging is a distinct attribute related to engagement and is not simply reducible to feelings of self-efficacy.

TL;DR: A review of optical, chemical, and biological sensors to detect metabolic activity at the single-cell level is presented in the context of the development of lab-on-a-chip research instrumentation.
