1. A device for collecting a physiological sample from a subject, comprising:
a lancet having a needle configured to puncture the subject's skin, and
a cartridge configured to engage with the lancet,
wherein the lancet is configured to automatically transition the needle from an undeployed position to a deployed position in response to a force applied to the lancet by engagement of the lancet with the cartridge, thereby allowing the needle to puncture the subject's skin.
