In September 2025, the member magazine of ‘Diabetesforeningen’ is landing in thousands of Danish homes – featuring the 12-page theme about early detection of type 1 diabetes (T1D) and DiaUnion.
The theme explores the real-life decisions facing families considering screening and what support is needed when navigating the decision and potential uncertainty. It also explains what the science and experts say about early detection of T1D.
Flemming Pociot, Professor at Steno Diabetes Center Copenhagen, commented: A debut with type 1 diabetes can be a traumatic experience. We hope to find those on the path to developing T1D – so they can experience a gentler disease onset.”
Tanja Thybo, Head of Research at Diabetesforeningen, further explained:
To develop new medicines that can delay or even cure T1D, we must first understand the earliest stages. Systematic screening for autoantibodies is a crucial way to build this knowledge.”
A warm thank you to Diabetesforeningen for highlighting this important topic – and to the families and experts contributing their voices and experiences.
