Evaluation of proposals includes alignment with ADC’s scientific research areas of interest, which are:
- Sensor-based glucose monitoring in the presence of comorbid conditions, for example obesity or cardiac disease
- Sensor-based monitoring in diabetes or other medical condition to optimize therapy
- Lifestyle, activity, and nutrition effects on glucose in people with diabetes, pre-diabetes, obesity, or other conditions
- Evaluation of glucose variability in people with diabetes and pre-diabetes on different therapy regimens as measured by sensor-based glucose monitoring
- Evaluation of behavior and quality of life effects related to sensor-based glucose monitoring
- Evaluation of digital or telehealth ecosystems that enable the use of sensor-based glucose monitoring to guide diabetes therapy
