There ought to be some mandated, non-basic training for all people involved in research conduct.

Bad science is just as dangerous as bad medicine.

Preach, @janespeight! 🙌

"Accelerating diabetes innovation for real-world impact requires interdisciplinary research and implementation."

So—who needs to be at the "table"?

✅People with diabetes
✅Biomedical scientists
✅Clinical scientists
✅Biostatisticians
✅Behavioural scientists and psychologists
✅Health economists
✅Epidemiologists
✅Implementation scientists

Anyone else?

#Lows can happen despite one's best efforts.

Learning from the amazing Anna Espinoza as she shares openly about her life with #type1diabetes

What she wants clinicians to know about managing #hypoglycemia?

✅Approach with EMPATHY
✅Appreciate that lows are COMPLEX
✅Help troubleshoot and PLAN

Will hypoglycemia still be a problem in 10 years?

@simonrheller says:

YES

But perhaps it will be less burdensome (at least in high-income countries)...

Looking forward to @DrAAddala's upcoming talk on 'Tech-quity' as relates to #hypoglycaemia
