Abstract
When I started graduate school, I had no idea that it would take me halfway around the world to a small clinic in Cabinda, Angola, but I'm glad that it did. Since 2011, I have been a part of the team of engineers and clinicians, led by Dr. Sergey Shevkoplyas, working to develop a simple, low-cost, paper-based test for sickle cell disease-a common inherited blood disorder that is most prevalent in sub-Saharan Africa (Figure S1).
摘要
当我开始读研究生时，我完全没想到这会带我跨越半个地球来到安哥拉卡宾达的一家小诊所，但我很高兴它做到了。自2011年以来，我一直是由谢尔盖·舍夫科普利亚斯博士领导的工程师和临床医生团队的一员，致力于开发一种简单、低成本的镰状细胞病纸质检测方法——镰状细胞病是一种常见的遗传性血液疾病，在撒哈拉以南非洲最为普遍（图S1）。
