The seminar highlighted the growing risk of diabetes in Bangladesh and emphasised the importance of early detection, public awareness, and improved diabetes management. Special attention was given to the need for timely interventions and effective strategies to address the increasing burden of diabetes.

The keynote speaker of the seminar was Dr Shahjada Selim, Associate Professor at Bangladesh Medical University (BMU). He delivered an insightful address, highlighting important aspects of diabetes care, prevention, and management, while providing valuable guidance on addressing the challenges associated with diabetes in Bangladesh.

Through initiatives like this, the Department of Pharmaceutical Sciences at NSU reaffirmed its commitment to promoting health awareness, encouraging early health screenings, and emphasising collaborative efforts to improve diabetes care in Bangladesh.
