Since the discovery of the Raman effect, C.V. Raman's work has continued to influence impactful research around the world, such as the development of this noninvasive blood glucose monitoring method:

People with diabetes need to check their blood glucose levels frequently, but must rely on needles that can cause discomfort or irritate the skin.
With a Raman spectroscopy system, researchers noninvasively collected the spectral signal of glucose with metrics comparable to commercially available CGM sensors.
