Diabetes Care "On Air"Show Notes
Welcome to a very special, all-new episode (no. 23) of Diabetes Care "On Air." While this podcast usually focuses exclusively on the research published in each month's issue of Diabetes Care, this unique episode focuses on the incredible scholarly content of the 84th Scientific Sessions, which took place 21–24 June in Orlando, FL. Diabetes Care "On Air" co-hosts Alice Cheng, MD, FRCPC, and Michael Rickels, MD, MS, hosted a panel discussion with Kirk Habegger, PhD, Darleen Sandoval, PhD, and Kevin Williams, PhD, who co-host DiabetesBio, as well as Neil Skolnik, MD, co-host of Diabetes Core Update and Diabetes Day by Day. This episode is being released on three of our professional podcasts: Diabetes Care "On Air," DiabetesBio, and Diabetes Core Update. This special episode is supported by an independent educational grant from Bayer. This wide-ranging discussion begins with introductions and brief descriptions of the various podcasts, and then the panelists highlight their favorite sessions and events from the 84th Scientific Sessions---the new, high-impact research presented at the meeting, implications for future research, and clinical considerations and take-aways---across the "bench-to-bedside" spectrum of biomedical research, clinical research, and treatment advances. (Please note that anyone who registered for the event can still access the recorded content at ada2024.org until August 26.) To learn more about Diabetes Care, please visit diabetesjournals.org/care.
