It is so sad and tragic that my dear friend Prof Tricia Dunning AM, from Geelong, Australia, has died this week. She was a great pioneer in the world of diabetes nursing!

Our 3rd paper on metabolic frailty phenotyping in diabetes. Remember, frailty severity determines glycaemic goals but frailty phenotype should determine what glucose-lowering therapy to use. Article - accessed here: bit.ly/3I1kFhJ
