The Future of Diabetes Technology: Beyond Devices to Equity and Personalisation

In this special episode, host Vivienne Parry is joined by experts Anna Krook (Karolinska Institute), Klemen Dovč (Ljubljana University Medical Centre), Peter Gillard (University Hospital Leuven), and Julia Mader (University of Graz) to explore the rapid evolution of diabetes technology. From continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) and automated insulin delivery (AID) systems to AI-powered apps and integrated health records, the panel discusses how these innovations are transforming care and what barriers remain. They unpack emerging trends in personalisation, device standardisation, and the urgent need for equitable access to ensure no one is left behind. The conversation draws on insights from Diabetologia’s 60th Anniversary Technology Supplement and Symposium (the official journal of the EASD), along with reflections from people living with diabetes themselves. The panel also explores a central question: how do we ensure everyone, from preschoolers to older adults, in both urban and rural settings, can benefit from these technologies? Tune in to hear what’s next for diabetes tech, and why centring people with diabetes in innovation is critical.
