I am happy to announce that I received 2024 @TheAACE (American Association of Clinical Endocrinology) Rising Star in Endocrinology Award for contributions in type 1 diabetes and diabetes technologies. Thank you and I appreciate this honor.


At #ATDC2025 I discussed GMI vs. uGMI vs. HbA1c vs. eA1c vs. TIR vs. TING What should be used in glycemic control ?

Dr. DeFronzo summarized the benefits of GLP-1 analogs. #ATDC2025 Drs. Phillip and Sherr are chairing. GLP-1 and SGLT-2 are mainstay in diabetes management unless otherwise indicated.

Read our recent study on cannabis use in type 1 diabetes and it is commonly misdiagnosed as gastroparesis and how to differentiate cannabis related symptoms vs gastroparesis in people with type 1 diabetes.
Differentiating Diabetic Gastroparesis and Cannabis Hyperemesis Syndrome in People With Type 1 Diabetes. Read Here➡️ diabetesjournals.org/clinical/looku…
A good start to #Endo2025 to talk about CGMs. Diabetes technologies for everyone.

Just received my Clinical Decision Algorithms in Diabetes book by @Drhkakturk . Can’t wait to keep learning from you—this time through your book!
My first book with Dr. Shah is published from American Diabetes Association. It will be a great pocket reference for clinicians taking care of people with diabetes. @ADA_DiabetesPro You can purchase from shopdiabetes.org/collections/pr…

Dr. Zaharieva @5Dess is talking on how to manage exercise in different AID systems in people with type 1 diabetes at the EPIC patient conference for diabetes. #EPIC2025 #EpiConf2025 Thanks for coming @5Dess and it was a great talk.

Interoperability in CGM is the key . All pumps should connect to all CGM. Users should make the decision.
Big news! The makers of Eversense, the first implantable CGM, announced their partnership with Sequel Med Tech — makers of the Twiist automated insulin delivery system! Senseonics developed the 365-day Eversense implantable CGM. Ascensia Diabetes Care brought this groundbrea ...
Simplera Sync is FDA approved @MDT_Diabetes . It will connect to 780G. It’s the new CGM from Medtronic.
Medtronic’s Simplera Sync CGM is approved by the FDA. It’s Medtronic’s new all-in-one CGM which has been out in Europe for a while. I’ve tried it a few times myself and here are my thoughts in this review: youtu.be/fAzEBh9INmQ
New Libre App is available ! The Libre app works with FreeStyle Libre 2 and FreeStyle Libre 3 family of sensors. Now one app for all sensors. @FreeStyleDiabet
