From Patient to Problem-Solver: The Story Behind the Glucose Projector

from Diabetes Connections | Type 1 Diabetes · host Stacey Simms

The glucose projector is a simple but powerful idea that can only come from someone who lives with type 1 – and sleeps with it! John DeLeo created a digital readout of CGM data that displays the number, and the time, right on the ceiling. John was diagnosed with type 1 in his 40s. We'll talk about his diagnosis, what lead him to this invention, the long road of bringing it to market, and more.
