Claire Levy explores the thorny issue of diabetes Stigma. If you are living with diabetes, you may very well have experienced ignorant, condescending or simply rude comments, not only from the public and even family members, but also possibly professionals who we would hope know better. Stigma can manifest itself in many ways.
DRWF’s Claire Levy looks at the growing development and implementation of technology in managing diabetes, from continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) to hybrid closed loop systems. We also hear from Shay Speakman-Brown at Dexcom and Professor Partha Kar; plus we preview the return of United Through Diabetes, back on 21st September 2024.
In this edition, we continue our series of interviews looking at interesting research projects funded by DRWF. Dr Mark Russell tells DRWF’s Claire Levy about research which studies a molecule that controls levels of specific genes and how this influences energy generation and insulin production in Beta cells.
