This platform allows those living with T1D to contribute to research in areas that matter most to them, while also allowing researchers to engage with a diverse range of people living with T1D from across Canada.

This webinar will:

  • Showcase how the platform provides ongoing updates on research projects to help participants feel more engaged with the process

Our Connect1d team will provide a short presentation, including a walk-through of the platform, and will be available afterwards to answer your questions. This webinar is perfect for PIs, Research Managers and Project Coordinators who will be planning for recruitment.
