Participate in a Research Study on Bone Health & Exercise Behaviours in Diabetes

Published: 11 November 2024

The Gibbs Lab at 91Ë¿¹ÏÊÓƵ is looking for adults aged 50 and above, diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes to participate in a research study.

Participation involves one audio-recorded interview conducted via Microsoft Teams or by phone.

The study aims to identify preferences, information needs, and perceived barriers related to exercise for the management of bone health in older adults with diabetes. Adults over 50 with diabetes are often unaware of their increased risk of bone fractures, which can lead to disability, hospitalization, and significant healthcare costs.

By participating, individuals can contribute to the development of a person-centered bone health and exercise education program, ultimately enhancing the quality of life for older adults with diabetes.

Interested individuals can contact Gibbs Lab at 91Ë¿¹ÏÊÓƵ by email or by phone to schedule an interview and be part of this important research project.
