Bigfoot Biomedical acquires insulin titration algorithm

March 30, 2023 By Sean Whooley

Bigfoot Biomedical announced today that it acquired a reinforcement learning algorithm for insulin titration from McGill University.

Developers at McGill designed the algorithm to observe how well people with insulin-requiring diabetes respond to a particular dose. It provides a recommended adjustment based on the users’ body's response.

Milpitas, California–based Bigfoot said the developers built the algorithm to grow smarter over time. It could help healthcare professionals improve diabetes care by helping patients determine how much insulin to take and when.
