Diabetes management company Glooko has tapped Dr. Mark Clements to be their next chief medical officer. Clements has been associated with the company since 2015 when he joined its medical advisory board. He has experience in both the academic setting and the clinical setting, having served as an associate professor at the University of Missouri-Kansas City School of Medicine and as a pediatric endocrinologist at Children’s Mercy Kansas City. 

“With diabetes technology today, the person with diabetes is able to accumulate enormous amounts of data about his or her diabetes and share it safely with healthcare professionals, and that ability is expanding rapidly,” Clements said in a statement. “That can provide a huge advantage in helping patients be more effective in managing their diabetes, but only if we provide tools that can help them see their data in the form of practical insights that they and their clinicians can use to effectively guide diabetes management. As the clear leader and a trusted partner in diabetes data management, Glooko is in a unique position to forge the path toward keeping data private and secure while making it usable and practical for patients and their providers, and I’m excited to be joining the organization in leading that effort.”
