The Steno Thursdays events aim to disseminate exciting diabetes research from clinical- and biomedicine to epidemiology. Most presentations are given by researchers affiliated to or collaborating with SDCA. We host Steno Thursdays Global once a month, featuring international diabetes experts.
There will be room for questions and discussions following every talk.

How often

Thursdays, 14:15-15:00 in Verdensrummet, Steno Diabetes Center Aarhus

Resolution of inflammation in adipose tissue; a patient in a dish model

Summary: Resolution of inflammation in adipose tissue is important in various
clinical settings. Utilizing lipoxins, a subfamily of pro-resolving lipid mediators, may promote the resolution of inflammation.

This presentation provides context for the  use of clinical models and samples to unravel the differences between resolving phenotypes.

w/ Bianca E. Suur, PhD, Postdoc @ SDCA (Börgeson Lab)

Care across sectors in patients with type 2 diabetes with focus on
medication

Summary: The Ph.D. project aims to identify patients with type 2 diabetes at risk of fragmented care and inappropriate medication due to many transitions between health care professionals. This will be explored in two register studies. Additionally, we will evaluate the impact of cross-sectoral videoconferences on medication management in general practice through a RCT supplemented by a process evaluation.
w/ Anne Sofie Baymler Lundberg, PhD-fellow @ SDCA (TVÆRS).

Talks and workshops at 'Pie & AI:Aarhus' cover a wide range of topics in data science and their impact on clinical research. Our aim is to bring the data science and clinical research communities together, therefore we organize the programme in a way that both communities can get inspired and learn something new at our events.

How often
Monday afternoon (once a month). See upcoming events here.

How to join
Meetings are held at Steno Diabetes Center Aarhus and streamed on Zoom. Registration is necessary. Talks are announced on Twitter @StenoAarhusRes, e-mail newsletters and Slack. Everyone can join.
