Technology and data have become central to every aspect of modern life, and new technologies such as continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) and connected insulin pens have the potential to be transformational to the general practice management of type 2 diabetes. This advanced course aims to educate GPs on the use of these technologies, exploring how the resulting valuable data and insights can allow you to provide more targeted, personalised and effective type 2 diabetes management for your patients.
Presented by leading experts A/Prof Gary Kilov AM and A/Prof Margaret McGill AM, this advanced course – described by one GP as ‘a total lightbulb moment’ – will take you on an illuminating journey into data-driven type 2 diabetes management, enabling you to practically engage with the technology and data that can change our patients’ lives.
