ADEA Honorary Life Membership Award 2024

"This award is an incredible recognition of the collective efforts of my colleagues and the broader diabetes community. Together, we strive to make lasting differences in the lives of those living with diabetes."

-Dr. Giuliana Murfet

First Aboriginal Health Practitioner to qualify as CDE

"I have always had a passion for working within Aboriginal health, particularly with chronic conditions, and feel that the next step for me is to specialise in diabetes education, prevention and management. This will enable me to pass my education on to the community in a culturally sensitive and appropriate way."

-Louise Gilbey
