The iLet Bionic Pancreas: An Update From Ed Damiano

Diabetes Connections | Type 1 Diabetes · May 2, 2017 · 1h 16m

This week, Ed Damiano talks about his Bionic Pancreas project. Using a pump called the iLet and a Dexcom CGM, the only information the Bionic Pancreas needs is the user's body weight.
