by Geraldine Ee Li Leng

Non-​communicable diseases like type 2 diabetes are a very real and growing problem, with considerable individual, societal, and economic burdens. The Mobile Health Intervention team within the Future Health Technologies (FHT) programme is keen to learn from experts, professionals, and key stakeholders about their experiences with digital health interventions for diabetes prevention in Singapore. What’s good, what’s bad, and what might the future hold for health interventions delivered via smartphones?

We are looking for experts and professionals working in the area of diabetes prevention in Singapore to provide important insights into the development of a new lifestyle coaching app for people at risk of type 2 diabetes. This study is conducted by the Singapore-ETH Centre and Saw Swee Hock School of Public Health at the National University of Singapore.

  • Have at least 1 year of experience in treating patients with diabetes, prediabetes or people at risk of diabetes in Singapore
  • Have experience in the management and/or prevention of T2D (incl. weight management).
  • Are English speaking
  • Consent to participate at your own free will

What to expect
