I sat down to interview the CEO of Senseonics company behind implantable CGM Eversense, Tim Goodnow and President & CEO of Eversense's global partner Ascensia company behind Contour glucose meters, Rob Schumm. The Eversense sensor is implanted in the upper arm for 90 days in the US and 180 days in Europe and they are working hard on the next generation sensor which will last for 365 days. Implanted sensor communicates to the on-body transmitter which communicates with an app. In this interview, we discuss how the system works from the insertion process. Tim also shared details about the so-called 'Gemini' sensor which eliminates the need for a transmitter altogether. I can't wait to hear your thoughts on this!
