Diabetes and cardiovascular disease are deeply connected - but effective care requires more than a single specialty.

In this episode, a cardiologist (Prof. Kieran Docherty ), an epidemiologist (Prof. Paul Welsh ) and a diabetologist (Prof. Hertzel C. Gerstein) discuss heart failure as a major complication of diabetes, how cardiovascular risk begins earlier than diagnosis, and why modern therapies increasingly address multiple conditions at once. The conversation also explores prevention, ageing populations, frailty, access to treatment, and the importance of integrated, patient-centered care.

Watch to learn how collaboration across disciplines is shaping the future of diabetes and cardiovascular medicine.
