• Breakthrough T1D Community Summit: Seattle, WA

    |

    The Breakthrough T1D Community Summit is an educational and networking opportunity for all those impacted by type 1 diabetes (T1D). This year, the Summit will bring our community together to learn from T1D experts, hear about the latest breakthroughs in research, connect with vendor exhibitors, and build meaningful connections with others who understand the T1D journey.

    All are welcome to join at no cost and registration is required.

    1:15 pm - 1:30 pm Breakthrough T1D Welcome

    1:30 pm - 2:15 pm Keynote Presentation: "Taking Flight with T1D"

    Joe Soter and Britta Olson are commercial pilots with T1D - a career many assume is off-limits. Joe was diagnosed in 2021, seven years into flying; Britta, mid-training. Both are back in the cockpit. Hear their journey back to flying and what it means for anyone told a diagnosis limits their future.
