 Wearable diabetes technology is almost constantly attached to the body and supports the management of type 1 diabetes through blood glucose monitoring and insulin delivery. I'm interested in how adolescents integrate this technology within their lives and how value emerges from their experience in terms of how it makes their life better off or worse off. I wanted to be part of a supportive community and research a subject close to my heart. My interest in this topic stems from my son being diagnosed with type 1 diabetes four years ago and from my drive to understand human experience. I am passionate about promoting the voice of adolescents in research. It's vital to raise awareness of type 1 diabetes and understand how this technology makes an invisible condition visible. Having completed my undergraduate degree in psychology with the Open University, I appreciated the flexibility it gave me to manage studying around my life and the exciting opportunities to continue my studies into a research career. Without a clear understanding of how adolescents integrate the technology within their lives, healthcare providers might bypass opportunities to personalize service offerings and improve the lives of those affected.
