In May, Dr. Viktoryia Kalesnikava presented at the Psychosocial Aspects of Diabetes annual meeting, which was held in Cluj-Napoca, Romania. Dr. Kalesnikava presented qualitative findings from the Diabetes, Distress, and Disparities (3D) Study, which was fielded in 2024 as a part of GREMAP’s Diabetes and Mental Health (DMH) Initiative. The presentation was titled “’When I do feel confident and secure, I feel more like my old self’: Patient perspectives and priorities in diabetes management” and highlighted patient perspectives and perceptions of their health and care needs related to diabetes. Dr. Kalesnikava also chaired a session on stigma and support at the conference. You can find the full conference proceedings here.
