The IHSG aims to increase our knowledge and understanding of hypoglycaemia to advance the study of diabetes management
Founded in 2013, the International Hypoglycaemia Study Group (IHSG) grew out of a need to address the problem hypoglycaemia poses in treating diabetes. By advancing the awareness and scientific understanding of hypoglycaemia, the IHSG seeks to create solutions to improve patients’ lives.
IHSG Objectives
To achieve the overall goal of improving the lives of people with diabetes, the objectives of the IHSG are to:
- Increase awareness of hypoglycaemia
- Advance scientific understanding of hypoglycaemia
