Glucose Regulation Project

The project SEP-CONACYT-ANUIES-ECOS NORD 296692 (2019-2024):

 “New Generation of Closed-Loop Control Algorithms for Glucose Regulation in Diabetic Patients via Bio-Inspired Models” 

is a bilateral research collaboration between CITEDI-IPN, Mx., and the IMS Laboratory of the University of Bordeaux, Fr. The project pursues the design of new closed-loop glucose regulation algorithms in Diabetes Mellitus Type 1 patients. We consider commercial continuous glucose monitoring systems and alternative biosensors measuring the pancreatic islets' electric activity. The project also comprises students and researchers from the Tecnológico Nacional de México/I.T. La Laguna. 

This project tries to address an international and national scope problem in health.
