In this episode of D-Talk, we explore type 5 diabetes, a lesser-known, but recently recognised type of diabetes, linked to chronic undernutrition, especially in childhood. Host Phyllisa Deroze is joined by Dr Meredith Hawkins, the Chair of the new IDF Type 5 Diabetes Working Group, and Co-Chair Dr Nihal Thomas to unpack the science, learn their research journeys and discuss why this type of diabetes needs our attention. From misdiagnosis to missed opportunities, this is a story about how the power of research is giving hope to over 20 million people.
