  1. Biological Engineering Application My Idea: Lumi-Listeria A Rapid, Paper-Based Biosensor for Food Safety. Why I want to build this During my previous internship, I did research on the 2017 Listeria outbreak, I realized that the biggest bottleneck in preventing foodborne illness is speed. Currently, if a food factory wants to test for pathogens, they have to send samples to a lab and wait days. By the time results come back, the contaminated food might already be in supermarkets, putting public health at risk.
