   Hot Topics for People Living with Diabetes - Off Label Use, Sensors and Stigma

   How can people living with diabetes help shape the future of diabetes care? In this episode of the EASD Podcast, recorded at the EASD Annual Meeting, Vivienne Parry is joined by Bastian Hauck and Renza Scibilia from the Diabetes Online Community (Dedoc). Together, they discuss some of the key issues facing people living with type 1 diabetes today, including emerging off-label therapies such as GLP-1 receptor agonists, advances in continuous glucose monitoring, responsible use of health data, and the ongoing effort to end diabetes stigma. The conversation highlights why people with lived experience must be involved at every stage of research, innovation and policy-making, ensuring that new therapies and technologies truly meet the needs of those they are designed to support. Throughout the discussion, one message stands above all: "Nothing about us without us." It is a principle that Bastian championed throughout his work and one that continues to guide patient advocacy across the global diabetes community. This episode is dedicated to the memory of our friend and colleague, Bastian Hauck, whose passion for patient advocacy and unwavering commitment to ensuring that people living with diabetes always had a voice continue to inspire us.

   When to Exercise and Does it Matter?

   In this episode, Dr Jeroen van der Velde explores one of the most common questions in lifestyle medicine: does the time of day you exercise make a difference? Drawing on the latest research presented at the EASD Annual Meeting, he discusses how exercise timing may influence glycaemic control, the role of circadian rhythms in metabolic health, and why later-day exercise appears to offer benefits for people living with or at risk of type 2 diabetes. The conversation also examines chronotypes, shift work, meal timing and the importance of personalised lifestyle advice, while reinforcing the key message that regular physical activity remains the most important goal.
