#1 Normless Performance Series: Enhance-d Training for People Living with Diabetes

Welcome to the new series Normless Performance! In the first episode we are joined by returning guest Drew Harrisberg and Sam Scott. Drew shared his story of diagnosis with type 1 diabetes in episode 22 of the podcast, you can listen to it here.

Sam is an exercise physiologist with clinical and applied research experience in the field of obesity, diabetes, and continuous glucose monitoring technology. His academic work has been primarily dedicated to devising innovative strategies—incorporating nutrition, behavioral modifications, and technology—to empower individuals living with type 1 diabetes in effectively managing their glucose levels during physical exercise. Moreover, Sam has cultivated a close working relationship with professional athletes who grapple with type 1 diabetes, serving as the Head of Research for Team Novo Nordisk for a period spanning over four years. During this time, he followed the athletes during races and training to explore the demands of professional cycling on these athletes. More recently, Sam co-founded enhance-d, which aims to revolutionize the utilization of data derived from diabetes technology and lifestyle wearables. Their mission is to streamline and simplify the process of harnessing this data to optimize glucose management during exercise.
