PCDE Study Group in primary care research is expanding..
One of the objectives of the research committee for 2022 is to expand the PCDE Study Group and enlarge the capability of the Study Group with enthusiastic researchers from across Europe to work together on joint research projects.
We are particularly interested in candidates who are GPs, pharmacist, or nurses either doing their PhDs, or are post-doctoral researchers.
Being part of this international group of researchers gives the candidate the opportunity to work on inspiring and innovative research projects within a dedicated, international team of experts, to share and learn about best practice and to contribute to quality management of primary care in diabetes in his/her country and across Europe.
We are looking forward to welcoming new enthusiastic researchers to Study Group.
ANNOUNCEMENT (15 December 2021)
Change of name: EASD-PCDE Study Group becomes Primary Care Diabetes Europe Study Group
The EASD-PCDE Study Group (in line with all Study Groups formerly associated with EASD) is to stop using “EASD” in their title, with immediate effect.
PCDE respects the request from EASD and has therefore changed the name of its Study Group to Primary Care Diabetes Europe Study Group.
Other than a change of name, this amendment has no practical consequences for the Study Group or its members.
