IDLab researcher co-founds Indigo Diabetes

Indigo Diabetes, a spin-off from Ghent University and imec, develops a silicon-photonics needle-free glucose sensor to measure and manage blood glucose levels without the need for blood droplets or finger pricks. The basic concepts and key IP emerged from the Photonics Research Group, where Danaë Delbeke incubated the technology in collaboration with two other research groups in Ghent, CMST and IDLab. While CMST focused on the development of packaging solutions, IDLab focused on the very sensitive, but low-power read out electronics and signal processing.
