Through a necklace device that tracks the amount of food and drink a person consumes, a UCLA lab is trying to create technology that would improve preventive medicine.

Majid Sarrafzadeh, a computer science professor, runs a wireless health lab at UCLA that works with doctors to find and solve health problems through engineering and computer science.

Sarrafzadeh said he thinks technology can be used to cut medical costs for preventable diseases, and part of the lab’s work involves creating devices that can help individuals track their own health.
