Measure
USS Virginia Closed Loop Control and SAP
The subject will be admitted to the research house/hotel and will be discharged after 5 nights. The subject will be trained on DiAs and on how to respond to the system's alerts. The DiAs will be initiated by 11:00 PM and will be discontinued before breakfast. The staff will be monitoring the subject remotely. The subject will need to remain within a 30 miles of the research house/hotel during the day and return by 6:00 PM. A limited number of UVA and UPadova subjects will be asked to wear the DiAs at home for 5 days at the conclusion of research house admission. DiAs: DiAs is the central component of our system. It is a standard cell phone running on an Android operating system. The cell phone has been changed to prevent from (1) using it as a phone or browser, (2) changing the volume (3) accidentally shutting it off. The cell phone runs an algorithm and is connected to work with the insulin pump and continuous glucose monitor to help keep the blood sugar in a desired range and

USS Virginia Closed Loop Control vs SAP
n=40 Participants
This is a cross-over trial in which each subject participates in two phases: USS Virginia Closed Loop Control (CLC) and Sensor Augmented Pump Therapy (SAP) and is randomized to order. During CLC: The subject will be admitted to the research house/hotel and will be discharged after 5 nights. The DiAs (CLC controller) will be initiated by 11:00 PM and will be discontinued before breakfast. During SAP: The subject will wear the continuous glucose monitor with the study insulin pump for a full 7 day period (approximately 7 consecutive 24 hour periods). The subject will follow their usual regimen. A limited number of UVA and UPadova subjects will be asked to wear the DiAs at home for 5 days at the conclusion of research house admission.

Sensor Augmented Pump Therapy
n=40 Participants
The subject will wear the continuous glucose monitor with the study insulin pump for a full 7 day period (approximately 7 consecutive 24 hour periods). The subject will follow their usual regimen. The subject will be asked to use the bolus calculator function on your insulin pump and enter the carbohydrate information that you eat during the week. Sensor Augmented Pump Therapy: Insulin pump plus CGM.
