BALTIMORE — In this video exclusive, Endocrine Today Diabetes in Real Life columnist Susan Weiner, MS, RDN, CDE, FAADE, talks with Cherise Shockley, founder of Diabetes Social Media Advocacy about her weekly Twitter chats and about bringing more diverse voices to the diabetes online community.

Since 2010, Shockley has been hosting organized discussions on Twitter — Wednesdays at 9:00 p.m. Eastern time — among people with diabetes, caregivers, friends, family members and diabetes educators about all things diabetes. For the third year, AADE hosted an in-person gathering during the chat. This year’s topic was diabetes life hacks.
