The T1DX-QI Learning Sessions

The 8th Annual 2024 T1DX-QI Learning Session

November 11, 2024

Chicago Marriott Downtown Magnificent Mile

540 Michigan Ave, Chicago, IL 60611

With our team-based focus on contributing partners, clinical collaboration, and co-production with people living with diabetes, we are excited to share the agenda, give you a glimpse at the guest speakers traveling to this learning session, and highlight what we will get to see and hear from our co-hosts at Northwestern and Lurie Children’s Hospital.

By the end of this learning session, we want participants to:

  • Synthesize a basis for the practice of delivering equitable, evidence based, cost effective diabetes care, both person-centered and population based in a learning health network.
  • Integrate current clinical science, health outcomes research, quality improvement methodologies, drug therapies, education,  and technology into clinical practice.
  • Become more informed and involved in advocacy issues related to diabetes care.
  • Provide a forum for resident education on current clinical practice, relevant diabetes care, practice management, and advocacy issues in preparation for careers and competent and ethical diabetes clinicians .

We are so glad to have you with us. Here’s to making life with diabetes better for everyone.
