About the ADEA Diabetes Education Research Journal Club

The research journal club is a virtual monthly meeting, hosted by Dr Virginia Hagger and Dr Kirstine Bell, and it is open to all ADEA members. Each month will have a theme, with two presenters sharing insights about their own diabetes education-focused research or presenting on an externally published paper. The journal club is a great way to meet other ADEA members interested in research and evidence-based practice, stay up to date with new research, upskill in research methods and critical appraisal skills for your own practice, and earn points for your credentialling/re-credentialling application.

Australasian Diabetes Congress 2025

We are delighted to host the Australasian Diabetes Congress at the Gold Coast Convention and Exhibition Centre, August 20–22, 2025. The content will once again be exceptional. The program organising committees of both societies have collaboratively developed an integrated program that will cover the latest breakthroughs in research, education and clinical care in diabetes. We have engaged outstanding speakers with whom you will be able to network to exchange opinions and discuss how to best care for the person living with diabetes. We are excited to provide you with opportunities to see old colleagues, meet new ones and connect again with our industry partners in the exhibition hall.
