Thermoelectric power generation for continuous glucose monitoring
Started Apr. 30, 2024
Abstract or project description
Amelia is investigating the use of thermoelectric generators for continuous glucose monitoring. She will review existing literature to determine if it is feasible to power continuous glucose monitors using TEGs. Then, she will evaluate the cost and user experience of a potential TEG-powered continuous glucose monitor. If this concept seems feasible, she will investigate why the technology has not come to market yet and propose ways to overcome barriers. She will synthesize this work into a research paper.
