Whether you live with type 1 diabetes or have a child with type 1 diabetes you are welcome to join us. The subject matter of the presentation will be pertinent to all women and you are welcome to bring a friend with you!Our guest speaker will be Dr. Lauren M. Sparks, a Senior Investigator with AdventHealth’s Translational Research Institute. Dr. Sparks pursues investigations on the topics of exercise response variation.
