About this talk In the age of big administrative datasets, including those from intervention trials, there is still an argument for more detailed patient-level data from community-based cohorts. One such cohort is that from the Fremantle Diabetes Study which was started 30 years ago and which has generated a wealth of data relating to diabetes management, complications and cost in a representative urban Australian setting.

He graduated in medicine from the University of WA, obtained a DPhil from Oxford University, and completed his physician training in the UK before taking up a postdoctoral position in Oxford University’s Tropical Research Unit in Bangkok. From there he took up his current academic and clinical appointments in Perth.
