Connecting with audience members in the Q&A session was my highlight of the #Insulin100 conference! Community and empathy is so important in the #diabetescommunity. I look forward to continuing these important conversations in the future.
Thanks to @OriaJames1 and Jen Hanson from @ConnectInMotion for their informative Q&A on thriving with #T1D, moderated by our own @powconrad. #insulin100

Absolutely my thoughts. The inequity in resource distribution/prioritization is unsettling. While I’ve been aware of the inequities in health(care) for a while, it is different to be confronted with news that seems to promote & praise the maintenance of these practices #HST440.
We discussed equity throughout #HST440 and it’s definitely interesting to see how this highly anticipated vaccine is being distributed. Many in the public will not get it for quite some time yet those with lots of power are at the front of the line. What message does this send?.

Agreed - #HST440 and @DrNancyOlivieri have enormously opened my eyes to the ways in which big pharma meddles with science, public medical knowledge, and disease advocacy. It is not an exaggeration to say that this class has changed the way I understand the world.

Learning that many clinical trials are directly produced by #bigpharma has transformed the way I see scientific literature. I used to believe that the scientific method was foolproof - you accept or reject the hypothesis. But science is grey, and must consumed with care #HST440.
