Maintaining Skin Integrity with Use of Diabetes Devices
March 11, 2025, 3:00–4:00 p.m. ET
Speakers: Kate Haynes RN, BSN, CDCES, LDE and Cari Berget, RN, MPH, CDCES
Moderator: Andrew Welch, MD
Description: Join other American Diabetes Association® (ADA) professional members on March 11, 2025 from 03:00 PM to 04:00 PM EST for a live, one-hour panel discussion webinar, Maintaining Skin Integrity with Use of Diabetes Devices. In this ADA webinar, the panel will discuss skin integrity and diabetes devices. Skin care can often be a barrier of care for the diabetes patients that utilize continuous glucose monitors and insulin pumps. Our presenters will identify solutions to skin irritation and share pearls of practice based on their experiences in the clinic setting. The panel will share five actionable tips for supporting professionals and people with diabetes, as well as host a live Q&A session at the end of the webinar.
The session is a part of the Hands On: Tips to Improve Diabetes Care webinar series available exclusively to ADA professional members and presented by the ADA’s Behavioral Medicine & Psychology, Diabetes in Primary Care, Exercise Physiology, and Diabetes Technology Interest Groups—supported by funding from The Leona M. and Harry B.

Interaction of GLP-1 agonists with Exercise and Nutrition on Muscle Health and Glucose Regulation
March 19, 2025, 9:00–10:00 a.m. ET
Speakers: Laura Russel, MA, RDN CDCES; Danny Green, PhD; and Flemming Dela, MD,
Moderator: Steven K. Malin, PhD, FACSM

This webinar will explore the interaction of these medications with exercise and nutrition, focusing on the role of nutrition in maintaining muscle mass and overall health, the impact of resistance exercise on muscle preservation, and how aerobic exercise interacts with GLP-1 agonists to regulate glucose levels independently of muscle mass. The discussion will provide evidence-based insights to guide patient care.
