Lilly Strives to 'Sniff Out' the Science of Diabetes Alert Dogs
A little drool, some stray fur in the corner of cubicles, and dog treats for good performance reviews: it's all in the name of science at Indianapolis-based Eli Lilly and Company. On any given day, there are up to seven dogs in the office sitting at the feet of Lilly employees, training to become hypoglycemia alert dogs. A newly formed partnership between the pharmaceutical giant and the Indiana Canine Assistant Network (ICAN) strives to "sniff out" the science that allows these dogs to detect an impending medical crisis and provide more diabetic patients with a furry—but effective—safety net.
