With that in mind, Bonbouton was born to utilize preventive medicine and enable better health and wellbeing for diabetes care.
Linh Le, Bonbouton’s founder and CEO, studied graphene printing technology as a doctoral student – research that led to the inkjet printing method of fabricating Bonbouton’s graphene thermal sensors. These sensors are the key ing
