- Non-invasive glucose sensing is considered the holy-grail of diabetes treatment. This is the first paper worldwide to report the use and validation in human trials of a novel non-invasive glucose sensing device (co-developed with industrial partners MediWise, themos.kalllos@mediwise.co.uk) based on transmitted mm-wave signals. Comparison with the gold standard blood-drawing provided a rigorous assessment of device performance. The findings were used as the basis for two Innovate UK projects to develop the next generation prototype (103862 and 104554, £2M total value). The paper is discussed in various recent review articles on the progress of non-invasive glucose monitoring (e.g., https://doi.org/10.3390/s19040800; https://doi.org/10.3390/s19051151; https://doi.org/10.3390/diagnostics9010006)
