This week will see 8 Quantified Self meetups with jam-packed agendas.
The QS family of meetup groups continues to expand with Bucharest having their very first Show&Tell meeting.
There will be two meetups occurring in San Francisco this week. QSXX will have a show&tell talk from Valerie Lanard on quitting TV. QSXX meetups are for women or those who identify as women. You can find out more here. QS San Francisco‘s meeting will have a stress-management and calming theme.
Cambridge will have talks on home blood test based analytics by Hemavault, anxiety monitoring via sensors in clothes, and a person’s experience tracking activities for 2 years. Stockholm will have Mattias Ribbing and Jonas Bergqvist as guests to speak about memory training, nutrition and fitness. Houston will have researchers Susan Schembre and Troy Gilchrist present their recent research on the gut biome and continuous glucose monitoring.
Berlin will feature a show&tell talk from Maximilian Gotzler on tracking high-sensitive C-reactive protein (hsCRP), a general indicator for inflammation, in his blood over time to find out which food or lifestyle factors influence inflammation in his body. They will also have a toolmaker talk by Josephine Worseck of Kenkodo, a blood test for measuring metabolites.
