Event Information

Event Topic:
Diabetes prevention, from opportunity to reality.

Event Description:
An estimated 96 million adults have prediabetes in the US and over 80% of them are unaware of it, putting them at risk of developing type 2 diabetes (T2D), heart disease, and stroke. While the prediabetes population is substantial, effective self- monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG) leading to healthy lifestyle changes can reverse prediabetes and prevent T2D. Since invasiveness and cost are the common and serious barriers to SMBG, LumosFit is developing a truly non-invasive, affordable, wearable, optical glucose monitor and an AI/ML powered app to support personalized lifestyle improvements.
