Background and purpose
It’s been 100 years since insulin was invented – preventing people with type 1 diabetes from dying. Today, these people still have to make up to 100 decisions daily to achieve the most balanced blood sugar (time in range), based on eaten carbs, physical activity, sleep, hormones, insulin injections, and much more.
The purpose of this Hackathon is to make all that data available for technical innovation from the user’s needs and perspective – so people with type 1 diabetes can get a healthier life and future.
We are looking for you!
