Diabetes Technology in Clinical Practice is a two-day course providing lectures and hands-on practice with novel and existing diabetes technologies. The course content ranges from cutting-edge research to the technologies used in daily clinical practice, and gives the participants unique insight into both worlds.
The first day of this two-day course will include lectures by leading experts in the fields. The scientific topics covered will include:
Through a poster session, participants will be invited to present their current preliminary results and receive feedback from senior researchers. Posters are welcome from all areas and types of diabetes, metabolism and endocrinology research. To participate in the poster session, it is not necessary that your research is on diabetes technology.
Additionally, the first day will include a networking lunch to strengthen future diabetes research in Denmark.
The second day will include a workshop where students can get hands-on experience with some of the novel technologies presented at the seminar.
Through the course, participants will gain knowledge on:
A few glucose sensors will be available for participants to wear and collect their own data during the course. Wearing a sensor is optional, and sensors may not be available for all who are interested. Sensors can be picked up at registration on the first day of the course.
