New light sensor for health monitoring
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study tests a new type of self-powered light sensor that may one day be used to monitor health. Researchers want to see how well it works when placed on your skin.

This study is testing a new device that measures blood sugar without a finger prick. It is open to healthy adults and people with type 2 diabetes, to see if the non-invasive meter works as well as standard blood tests.
This study tests a new glucose sensor placed inside a blood vessel to see how well it measures blood sugar. If you have diabetes and use intensive insulin therapy, this could be a way to help improve monitoring.
This study tests a new way to measure blood pressure by using a light sensor on your fingertip, instead of a traditional arm cuff. It aims to see if this optical method works as well as standard blood pressure checks.
This trial tests and “validates” how well wearable sensors work on the skin in healthy adults. It may help researchers build safer, more reliable wearables—but you would need healthy skin and the ability to do some moderate exercise during the study.
This trial tests a new way to measure blood sugar using a light-based scanner on your fingernail, without a finger prick. It aims to see if this method is accurate for people with and without diabetes.
This trial is testing a new way to monitor blood sugar for people with diabetes. It uses a small sensor placed under the skin to track glucose levels, which may reduce the need for finger-prick tests.
