Dear Parents and Carers,
We are delighted to be able to invite you to our first virtual teaching seminar for families of children with type 1 diabetes.
This will take place on Thursday 17th July at 7.30pm.
It will be led by Professor Roman Hovorka and his team from the University of Cambridge and will be entitled:
‘An introduction to the CamAPS FX’’
Closed-insulin delivery has been shown improve outcomes and quality of life in people with type 1 diabetes. Professor Hovorka will describe the status of the field focusing on the Cambridge CamAPS FX system which is now available for clinical use from the age of 1 year, see www.camdiab.com”
There will be time to ask questions and discuss the system with Professor Hovorka and his team at the end of the session.
We are very pleased that we are able to share a teaching opportunity about such an exciting new piece of technology with you all.
