In an effort to mitigate the growing prevalence of diabetes in India through research, the Madras Diabetes Research Foundation (MDRF), entered into a strategic partnership with embedUR Systems, a company specialising in AI, Edge Computing, IoT and Cloud, to co-create advanced AI models for diabetic management. This collaboration between embedUR and MDRF aims to harness the transformative power of AI for diabetes research with the goal of strengthening the efficacy of clinical studies in the field and improving the quality of diabetes management in the country. The MoU between MDRF and embedUR systems was signed today in a press conference by Dr V Mohan, Chairman,MDRF and Rajesh C Subramanium, Founder and CEO of embedUR Systems.
The collaboration will see experts from both embedUR and MDRF diving deep into MDRF’s extensive Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) datasets of a sample size of several thousand patients. Utilising AI computing tools developed by embedUR, the teams will develop sophisticated AI models capable of continual learning and refinement. Experts from both organisations will collaborate closely, employing various metrics to gauge the efficacy and relevance of the data. This will ensure that the software developed is precisely tailored to address the critical needs in diabetes management.
This strategic approach aims to deliver impactful solutions that can transform diabetes care and management. The preliminary findings from this analysis will guide the development-related efforts, ensuring that the AI models are built on robust and relevant data.
