Google: From Search Engine to Anti-Diabetes Crusader by Sam Brusco

Most of us think of Google as our friendly neighborhood search engine and developer of Android phones (I have one, in case you were wondering.) I also chuckle at the doodles they come up with to commemorate world events. Today’s just happens to be the start of the 2015 US Open Tennis Championship – if you check out the homepage, “o” and “g” are locked in a never-ending volley.
As of late, however, Google’s showing quite an interest in diabetes care management. Just today, Google’s Life Sciences division announced a partnership with French drug maker Sanofi to improve care for those with type 1 and 2 diabetes. The collaboration will leverage Sanofi’s expertise in diabetes treatments and Google’s prowess in miniaturized electronics, analytics, and low power chip design. The companies intend to create new tools that combine the previous arsenal of diabetes management technologies and treatments, including blood glucose monitoring, patient-reported information, drug regimens, and sensing technology.
Google and Sanofi hope to move the technology out of the lab and begin developing smart insulin delivery and measurement devices, as well as interfaces and platforms to help patients and physicians better assess the condition. One of the major efforts Google and Sanofi will undertake is novel ways to store and analyze glucose levels in real-time.
