Speakers: Dr Gary Kilov and Dr Rajna Ogrin
Clinical Associate Professor Gary Kilov (University of Melbourne) is a founding member of both
the Royal Australian College of General Practitioners (RACGP) Diabetes specific interest group and the primary care diabetes society of Australia (PCDSA). He is a contributor to the RACGP diabetes handbook (2012-20)
He is a member of several NDSS (National Diabetes Supply Scheme) Expert Reference Groups
He is the past editor in chief of the PCDSA journal
Associate Professor Kilov shares his time between Launceston treating the full spectrum of patients with diabetes and obesity related conditions and providing peer to peer and medical undergraduate education on diabetes and related conditions.
He is involved in undergraduate and postgraduate education both within Australia and internationally. He is widely published in peer reviewed journals on topics covering diabetes, obesity and respiratory medicine.
Dr Rajna Ogrin initially trained as a clinical podiatrist where she identified gaps in the provision of evidence based clinical practice. This has led to her working and researching in the areas of diabetes and community based, person-centred interprofessional care incorporating co-design, to better facilitate translating evidence into practice focusing on older people.
She is the Chair of the Primary Care Diabetes Society of Australia.
