The Children’s Diabetes Centre Research App is a digital tool we use to enable us to collect data from members of the public who are participating in one of our trials. The App is leading edge as it provides the ease of use and immediacy of a digital tool for our trial participants, and equally provides us with high quality, collated data.

The App is only for use by public participants registered in one of our clinical trials and requires manual activation by Centre staff.

The Childrens Diabetes Centre, based at the Telethon Kids Institute, is the only paediatric research centre of its kind in Australia and aims to improve the lives of children with Type 1 Diabetes.

The Centre was established in 2015 by a Centre for Research Excellence (CRE) grant from the National Health and Medical Research Council and JDRF Australia and is currently involved in an international effort to develop revolutionary closed-loop ‘artificial pancreas’ technology. It first tested the system for overnight blood glucose control and is now leading an Australia-wide trial of these portable devices at home.
Other studies at the Childrens Diabetes Centre are looking at preventing hypoglycaemia after exercise, food and nutrition, understanding what causes Type 1 Diabetes, new medicines and analysing trends in patient care.
