Second Annual Diabetes Technology Meeting
Abstract
The Second Annual Diabetes Technology Meeting on October 31 - November 2, 2002 at the Atlanta Hyatt Regency Hotel was co- sponsored by the Technologies for Metabolic Monitoring Joint Program, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, NASA, Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation International, the UC Berkeley Department of Bioengineering, the Georgia Tech/Emory Center for the Engineering of Living Tissues (GTEC), and by "Diabetes Technology & Therapeutics". The Meeting included sessions on: 1) new technology for measuring glucose and other markers of glycemic control; 2) the artificial pancreas; 3) new technology for delivering insulin (and other therapeutic peptides) for diabetes, such as inhaled, oral, or by other new formulations; 4) computers and diabetes; and 5) a live demonstration of continuous glucose monitoring technology. The Meeting included two poster session receptions, in which a total of 99 posters were presented. The Meeting, which began on the evening of October 31, 2002, was preceded on the afternoon of October 31, 2002 by two simultaneous half-day workshops, which were optional supplements to the meeting. These workshops were entitled: "Calibration of Continuous Glucose Sensors" and "Advances in therapy for diabetes -2002". The 2 1/2 days of the meeting and workshops featured presentations by 50 diabetes technology experts.
