In this episode of Glucose Never Lies, John Pemberton welcomes Dr. Inge Van Boxelaer, endocrinologist and founder of Diabetotech, an independent education platform for diabetes technology. Together, they explore the critical role of education in maximizing the benefits of devices like continuous glucose monitors (CGMs), insulin pumps, and automated insulin delivery (AID) systems.

Dr. Van Boxelaer shares her journey from clinical practice to creating Diabetotech, highlighting how access to technology isn’t enough—patients and healthcare professionals need structured, unbiased, and up-to-date training. The conversation covers how Diabetotech delivers short, modular courses, device comparisons, and CPD-accredited content, helping clinicians, educators, and people living with diabetes gain confidence and improve outcomes.

Key topics include:

  • Overcoming educational barriers to adopting new diabetes technologies
  • The evolution of AID systems and CGMs, and their impact on daily management
  • How flipped learning and modular education can save clinician time while improving patient competency
  • Independent, consistent, and regularly updated resources for clinicians, patients, and care teams

Whether you’re a healthcare professional, a person living with diabetes, or part of a care team, this episode highlights why understanding the technology is as important as having it. Dr. Van Boxelaer also shares her vision for the future of diabetes education and how accessible learning can support better outcomes and fewer complications.
