The objective is to build interest in diabetes and diabetes-related topics, such as diet and physical activity, insulin use, language, oral health, and the symptoms and management of hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia.

I am 25 years old and I have lived with type 1 diabetes since I was 15 years old. I am studying medicine. Having the opportunity to be a part of this program is an honor and a challenge. I want learn more about this condition and share my knowledge. I wish to help people develop the necessary skills to avoid having their diabetes become an obstacle in achieving their goals.
