Wireless real-time monitoring could add precision to the linkage between diet and healthMEDFORD/SOMERVILLE,Mass. (March 22, 2018) – Monitoring in real time what happens in and around our bodies can be invaluable in the context of health care or clinical studies, or but not so easy to conclude. That could soon change thanks to unique,miniaturized sensors developed by researchers at the Tufts University School of Engineering that, when mounted directly on a tooth and communicating wirelessly with a mobile device, and can transmit information on glucose,salt and alcohol intake.
