ADA 2026 Diabetes Tech News Roundup

ADA 2026 Scientific Sessions brought a wave of exciting diabetes technology announcements, and Endo Dr. David Ahn and I dig into all of it in a live recording of the podcast! From a hands-on look at the new MiniMed Flex to updates from Tandem, Omnipod, twiist, and the open-source community, our discussion explores how these innovations could shape the future of diabetes care. We also dive into Abbott’s new dual glucose-ketone sensor, whether or not ketone monitoring is necessary, and the real-world impact these advancements could have for people living with type 1 and type 2 diabetes.   Following the live event, we hosted an All Access member ask me anything-style Q+A! We answered even more questions about reactions the open source excitement, reactions to MiniMed's new pumps, and our initial thoughts on Dexcom G8.   Learn about the Eversense 365 CGM   Learn about Omnipod 5 (sponsor)*   Join the Diabetech Newsletter   Follow Diabetech: Instagram | Tik Tok | YouTube | Facebook | Threads   Follow David's channels: Instagram | Tik Tok | X   DISCLAIMER: This podcast is not medical advice and is for educational purposes only.
