Diabetes Update Day 2022 | Online
Event Information
About this event
In light of the recent increase in COVID-19 cases in communities across Queensland and New South Wales, we have made the decision to move Diabetes Update Day to a virtual event. If you purchased a ticket to Diabetes Update Day Sydney or Brisbane, you will receive an email with options to transfer or refund your ticket.
Join Australia’s leading experts to discuss the future of managing diabetes, preventing and treating complications and clinical best practice.
Every year, we bring together current and future leaders in the field of diabetes. Diabetes is Australia’s fastest growing chronic disease and a leading cause of heart attack, stroke, kidney disease, limb amputation, depression, anxiety, and blindness - but it doesn’t have to be this way. With a focus on prevention, early detection, optimal treatment and effective ongoing support, people living with diabetes can live a full and healthy life. This year’s conference will bring together frontline health care professionals online to learn, build networks and discuss new ideas.
