This talk discusses the Artificial Pancreas System, focusing on the technical aspects of the system and the clinical research to date. It includes information on the challenges that such a complex system presents; the adaptive, non-linear control algorithm used to address these challenges and what the system can do to revolutionize diabetes care for patients with insulin-dependent diabetes.
Developing control systems for medical applications poses significant challenges, some of which are unique to this field. Physiological systems involve a multitude of interacting subsystems and networks, with multiple feedforward and feedback loops. The dynamics vary both between different individuals, and within the same individual over time. Measurement and estimation of both inter- and intra-patient […]
The success of the human genome project has ushered in a new era that emphasizes a systemic or integrated approach to ascertain the cellular behavior arising from complex cellular networks. Scientists are now embarking on a quest to elucidate the organization and control of cellular networks that underlie the phenotypic behavior of a cell; these […]
