A Rice team, including Rebecca Richards-Kortum and Emilie Newsham Novak, a former bioengineering doctoral student in Richards-Kortum’s lab, has developed realistic ‘mock’ samples to speed cervical cancer test development.

This study addresses a critical bottleneck in global health: the lack of reliable, real-world samples needed to design and validate next-generation point-of-care screening tools for cervical cancer.

Findings from the study, published in the Journal of Medical Virology, could help researchers build better tests faster by giving them samples that truly reflect what clinicians see in patients.

This work was done in collaboration with Emory University and clinicians at UT MD Anderson Cancer Center and supported by the National Cancer Institute. https://news.rice.edu/news/2026/rice-researchers-develop-realistic-mock-samples-speed-cervical-cancer-test-development

Our Fellows aren't just building medical devices, they’re building on a foundation of advice, wisdom, and grit passed down from their moms.

Whether it’s the patience to push through a difficult engineering hurdle or the empathy required to design for rural communities, our team brings their mothers’ "superpowers" into the lab every single day.

This is our way of saying thank you, by ensuring every mother has the technology she deserves for a safe Day One. Donate today: https://bit.ly/4w9Ujmv
