1. A method to continuously measure electrochemical activity of one or more biochemical or molecular markers, comprising the steps of:
- attaching a substrate having electronics for measuring electrochemical activity and a plurality of electrodes such that said electrodes are in contact with the subcutaneous layer of a subject'"'"'s skin;
and measuring a biochemical process associated with said one or more biochemical or molecular markers in vivo by detecting an electrochemical signal in said subcutaneous layer using said plurality of electrodes.

Abstract
Methods and devices to continuously measure electrochemical activity of one or more biochemical or molecular markers (FIG. 9). A substrate having electronics for measuring electrochemical activity and a plurality of electrodes such that the electrodes are in contact with the subcutaneous layer are attached to subject'"'"'s skin or intravenously. The devices measure a biochemical process associated with one or more biochemical or molecular markers in vivo by detecting an electrochemical signal in subcutaneous layer (or intravenously) using the plurality of electrodes.
