Masterclass: Face to Face Day

Masterclass launches 2024 Series with Face to Face Day

What a great we had t our Masterclass Series Face to Face Day where more than 200 health practitioners learned more about diabetes prevention and management across eight interactive sessions.

Thanks to Professor Stephen Twigg who delivered the plenary on liver  disease.

Topics included diabetes distress; type 1 diabetes; and weight management during pregnancy; and nutrition.

Thanks to Olympian Duncan Armstrong OAM from Exercise and Sports Science Australia (ESSA) who led an engaging and interactive talk on exercise and diabetes; and the NSW Agency for Clinical Innovation for leading an engaging presentation on diabetes in Aboriginal communities in western Sydney.

If you missed any of the sessions you can watch the recordings on the myINTERACT app.
