What is the Diabits App?
Updated: Nov 6, 2019
“Can we prevent disease complications using machine learning?” This was the question that our founder Amir Hayeri, sought to answer when he started Bio Conscious Technologies Inc. in 2015. A focus on diabetes was established, and in 2017, he and his team had designed the Diabits app and completed successful clinical testing with BC Children’s Hospital.
How Does the Diabits app Work?
