Which Alphabet company develops glucose-monitoring technologies and was formerly called Google Life Sciences?

The story behind the answer

The Alphabet company formerly called Google Life Sciences is Verily.

Google Life Sciences became Verily Life Sciences in 2015, when Google reorganized under Alphabet. Verily works on health technology, medical research, clinical studies, and data-driven approaches to disease. Its work has included projects involving diabetes and glucose monitoring.

The company is distinct from Calico, which focuses on the biology of aging and age-related diseases. Verily also differs from Google Health, a Google division that has worked on health-related software and research. The glucose-monitoring work associated with Verily has included partnerships and wearable or sensor concepts, but individual projects have changed over time as research progressed.
