Connect1d Canada is a patient-driven digital platform that allows those with type 1 diabetes (T1D) to easily learn about advances in innovative care, while contributing to Canadian research in the areas that matter most to them. Connect1d Canada also allows researchers to easily engage people living with T1D of diverse backgrounds from across Canada, enabling rapid recruitment into research studies.

As part of Dr. Jon McGavock’s type 1 diabetes (T1D) and exercise research at the Children’s Hospital Research Institute of Manitoba (CHRIM), his team has developed a series of webinars on this topic.
