I also think that in a hospital environment, you could tie it into systems and make sure that you're actually administering the correct medicine, not something that you can imagine a alert flashing up on the healthcare provider's device if it's the wrong medicine.

The pill itself, I don't know if we'll ever get past the consumer stage. acceptance of RFID, like actually being in the pillow itself. But if we could get there, that's not super far out. That's probably, you know, probably five years out. Yeah. Yeah. But it's not, the technology is there.

No, we've not produced a wearable of our own. And it ends up being a little bit challenging as a manufacturer. It'd be a lot easier if we didn't make drugs to actually launch a wearable. But because you make drugs, then the question is, well, are you using this to, does it have to be, is it required for somebody taking the medicine?

So there's a whole host of things that makes it really complicated for us to do it. So for the most part, where we use these things are in clinical trials.

If you're a nerd out on all of this. I think it's probably on the scale of two to three, I think. I think there are only so many places that you're willing to put a wearable. You can imagine there's your ring, there's a watch. You might be able to, if you've ever had a Zio patch or anything like that, a heart patch, those are not terribly uncomfortable. Insoles, you could imagine. But after that,

You don't have that many more places, I think, that you'd be willing to wear something. So I'll go with those three tops.

Yeah. There's lots and lots and lots and lots of things. No, I thought you were going to go down a different path, which is like the, what you might like enhancing your eyes or your hearing or things like that, which is also like, that's just another fascinating space of science.

We do that with some of our clinical trials. You'll get like, here are the devices to take with you. But if you look at weight loss medications, we've, we're already all doing that right now, like, because we all have scales in our house, right? And so, and so I think that is a great example of like, if you give feedback to the person taking the medicine, they're

And so, and so I think that is a great example of like, if you give feedback to the person taking the medicine, they're

they're going to be more likely to stay on it. At least that's one of my hypotheses. I think that if you took away scales and you took away mirrors, I think a lot more people would drop off the chronic weight management medicines early on. But the fact is, when you get on the scale and you can see, hey, I lost some weight, you want to stay on it.

don't have anything like that for statins or anything else, right? And that's, again, like why people drop off. Just imagine if you could just see, oh, hey, actually, you know, or I'm taking cholesterol medication and you know what? Hey, my cholesterol went down versus yesterday, not versus three months ago.
