diaTribe at Taking Control of Your Diabetes in Des Moines, Iowa
On September 27, Taking Control of Your Diabetes (TCOYD) will host its 6th annual patient conference in Des Moines, Iowa. Founder Steve Edelman and his team have assembled an excellent cast of diabetes experts, including clinical psychologist Dr. William Polonsky, motivational speaker Joe Piscatella, and professional chef Robert Lewis. diaTribe’s own senior editor Adam Brown will speak at two panels on technology, focusing on both CGM devices and apps for type 1 diabetes – please stop by and say hello! This conference features expanded programming for both type 1 and type 2, so all are encouraged to attend.
The event runs from 9 am to 5 pm on September 27 at the Iowa Events Center. Registration is $25 per person (or $20 per person for groups of two or more) on or before September 24, and on-site registration is available for $30 per person. More information about registration or the event in general can be found on the TCOYD website. If Iowa is too out of the way for you, TCOYD has two more scheduled conferences and health fairs in 2014: October 18 in Amarillo, TX, and its largest conference of the year on November 8 in San Diego. –GM
