He is the Founding Editor-in-Chief of Journal of Diabetes Science and Technology and co-founded the Digital Diabetes Congress. He chairs the Scientific Advisory Board for the Texas A&M University Precise Advanced Technologies and Health Systems for Underserved Populations (PATHS-UP) Engineering Research Center. He is currently researching new devices and drugs for diabetes. Dr. Klonoff graduated from UC Berkeley and UCSF Medical School and did five years of internal medicine and endocrinology training at UCLA and UCSF. Dr. David Kerr is Director of Research and Innovation at Sansum Diabetes Research Institute, Santa Barbara, and Director of Digital Services for the Diabetes Technology Society. Previously he was Consultant Physician in Internal Medicine and Endocrinology at the Bournemouth Diabetes and Endocrine Centre in the UK. His research and innovation continue to focus on the use of technology for diabetes care and also the new area of digital health. He is co-founder of the annual Digital Diabetes Congress and recently launched a major long-term initiative to reduce the burden of diabetes for an underserved population in the United States through the creation of an innovative long-term cohort study (Mil Familias). He is also lead investigator in a program exploring the value of food as medicine through the use of medical prescriptions of vegetables for adults with or at risk of type 2 diabetes (Farming for Life). Shelagh Mulvaney, PhD, is an Associate Professor and pediatric psychologist at Vanderbilt University. Her research focuses on integrating behavioral science into the design and evaluation of technology-mediated self-management support systems for adolescents and young adults with diabetes. Central to her research are technologies and processes that engage patients in their daily health behaviors including mobile technologies, social learning mechanisms, and self-care problem solving. A primary focus of her work is on momentary assessment of affect, cognition, and behavior for personalized feedback and health communications.
