The Association of British Clinical Diabetologists

Consultants in diabetes today provide vital clinical and strategic leadership within their Trusts, both as clinical and medical directors, and in a variety of roles in the wider health economy. In addition to continuous professional development, which all healthcare professionals are required to complete, ABCD encourages its members to engage in continuing personal development, providing a range of development opportunities for those who might wish to take on leadership roles in the future.

Now in its fourth year, we are proud to re-advertise the clinical grant funding scheme from The Diabetes Care Trust and The Association of British Clinical Diabetologists for high quality clinically based studies costing up to £50,000 relating to the management and care of people with diabetes. Applicants should be in the early stages of their career.
