| Conditions: | Diabetes, Diabetes, Diabetes |

This proposal seeks to gather continuous blood glucose and physical activity data from
individuals with and without diabetes who are physically active and exercising for health
benefits. The investigators hypothesize that insulin requirements will be inversely related
to intensity of activity and an algorithm will be able to detect physical activity and
automatically adjust insulin doses. Once such an algorithm has been determined for an
individual, it can be applied to future similar situations, but ideally the algorithm will
be dynamically refined based on closed-loop feedback information.
