Again, feeling the need to take a (possibly permanent) break from X. Twitter was a place to share and be informed. If Elon Musk wants to turn it into a place to incite hatred and violence, then it’s not the place for me.
You’ll find me on the new Twitter (aka LinkedIn)

@DiabetologiaJnl All types of diabetes?

[Prof Jane Speight #EndDiabetesStigma @janespeight]

Quite shocked by a decision by @NatureMedicine to reject a letter to the editor on the basis of “lack of space” - I didn’t think that was an issue (or not a good one) in the age of digital journals.
Very disappointing that the editor is not inclined to support academic debate

@ChitraEndocrine So important!

[Prof Jane Speight #EndDiabetesStigma @janespeight]

The #UniteForTech focus during #NDW24 is a timely reminder that not everyone with T1D has access to tech.

Many live everyday with worries about hypos.

If that is you, then you may want to take part in the HypoPAST study

Reflections on the recent Parliamentary Inquiry on Diabetes #ndw24 #unitefortech #EndDiabetesStigma

[ACBRD #EndDiabetesStigma @ACBRD]

It’s #NationalDiabetesWeek (14-20 July 2024) here in Australia. Usually, it's not so much a celebration, as a call to action. So, it's timely to reflect on the recent report from the Parliamentary Inquiry: The State of Diabetes Mellitus in Australia

The #UniteForTech focus during #NDW24 is a timely reminder that not everyone has access to tech.

Many ppl w T1D live everyday with worries about hypos.

If that is you, then HypoPAST may be for you.

Take part in this research study today https://t.co/qhjW1WwH9L

[ACBRD #EndDiabetesStigma @ACBRD]

It’s National Diabetes Week #NDW24 and the focus is #UniteForTech

So, here is a recent blog reporting on a review of the impact of tech on quality of life and related outcomes among adults with T1D

https://t.co/8TLiLtyYi1

[Prof Jane Speight #EndDiabetesStigma @janespeight]

The national conversation (led by media, researchers, health professionals and many others) has shown considerable bias & stigma to people with diabetes since the release of the Inquiry report - and so many missed opportunities - great blog by @RenzaS

[Dr Eloise Litterbach @ELitterbach]

Please think hard about your language, the imagery and where you place "responsibility" in your responses to the most recent parliamentary inquiry. The consequence of not doing so (regardless of intention) is stigma.

[Prof Jane Speight #EndDiabetesStigma @janespeight]

The @ACBRD has take the Pledge to #EndDiabetesStigma - Will you join us?

Well, new research we've funded might help us understand that 👩🏻‍🔬

We all have body fat, and the results show that where our genes instruct our bodies to store this fat plays an important role in changing our risk 🧬 👇🏾
