Course description

At a time when our diabetes knowledge and treatment options have advanced so much, why do clinical outcomes remain suboptimal, with so many patients unable to achieve good control of their disease?

The answer is rooted in four challenges:

  • Keeping pace with rapidly advancing clinical options for diabetes care:
    • Therapies

  • Accounting for a patient’s unique biological, psychological, social, financial, educational, and cultural factors
