In Focus: Gender and Type 1 Diabetes

Gender shapes health experiences and care needs, yet little is known about how gender roles and identities impact experiences with T1D. This qualitative study uses photography to explore the relationships between gender, self-management, and care for emerging adults (18-29 years of age) with Type 1 Diabetes. Individuals are asked to take part in a virtual focus group, followed by a photo taking exercise (capturing between 5-25 images), and one-on-one interview to discuss photographs taken.
