Human Digital Twin Project
Type 2 Diabetes (henceforth “diabetes”) is a serious illness that affects thousands of people in New Zealand. Diabetes leads to serious health consequences.
Diabetes can be controlled and even reversed by adjusting lifestyles such as diet, exercise, and managing life stress. Nowadays, such a prediction is possible using Artificial Intelligence.
We are studying how artificial intelligence can be used to reverse diabetes. We are funded by the New Zealand Health Research Council with grant 24/827; we are conducting the study in different parts.
- In the current research, we are studying how we might predict HbA1c from continuous glucose monitor data
- In another study, we are testing how we might create digital avatars to communicate with you
- A third study will look into how we might use smartwatches and wearables to reverse diabetes
