MuSiC4Diabetes

Diabetes mellitus is a life-threatening disease, and the global incidence is escalating at an alarming rate. Existing diabetes management systems, such as glucose monitoring systems and integrated insulin-delivery devices, provide valuable treatment options. However, they necessitate regular upkeep by the patient and may fail to predict glucose deficits in certain circumstances.

MuSiC4Diabetes sets out to change the current paradigm in diabetes management while maintaining safety and convenience for the users. The research project is based around two core principles: to improve the quality of life for people living with diabetes and to overcome the obstacles they encounter. This will be reached by developing a smart device that integrates multi-metabolite (MM) sensors and high-precision insulin-delivering pumps, thus providing a compact, safe and long-lasting solution.
