Diabetes Insights - Breakthroughs and Innovators

Show Notes

In this episode, Bastian Hauck and Renza Scibilia from the Dedoc° explore how lived experience is reshaping the future of diabetes care.

Once excluded from scientific discussions, people living with diabetes are now playing a central role in research, clinical guidelines, and innovation. From contributing to EASD guideline development to sharing global perspectives in leading journals, patient voices are driving more relevant, inclusive, and impactful care.

Join us as we discuss the evolution of patient involvement, the power of peer support, and why lived experience is now recognised as essential expertise in diabetes research and practice.
