TYPE 2 DIABETES Dr Adam Fraser started his career as an academic; however he quickly discovered that staring down a microscope was not nearly as much fun as interacting with human beings. Eight years ago he cut the university umbilical cord and moved into the real world. He is now highly sought after as a keynote speaker, who has spoken all over the globe on the subject and regularly appears on television, radio and the print media. His PhD examined how physical activity and diet intake can prevent the development of type 2 diabetes. He is an Accredited Exercise Physiologist who has served on state boards for Sports Medicine Australia (SMA) and Exercise and Sports Science Australia (ESSA). He now works with some of Australia's most infl uential corporate leaders, helping them improve their performance and quality of life. Christine Armarego has two Masters (yes – one was not enough), one in Ergonomics and the other in Exercise Rehabilitation. She has unique and comprehensive experience in Chronic Disease Management having worked for over six years at the Heidelberg Repatriation Hospital in Melbourne as the sole Exercise Physiologist. She played a key role in developing the Veteran Services Program – primarily rehabilitation and exercise training they affectionately referred to her as the "little Sergeant Major").

She is an Accredited Exercise Physiologist and former director of the state board for Exercise and Sports Science Australia (ESSA) and coordinator of the Exercise Physiologists in Hospital Network.
