The 53rd EASD Annual Meeting, held last month, was a great success with more than 15.000 attendants and 1266 abstracts selected. In our [last blog post](https://blog.profil.com/blog/novelties-treatment-type-2-diabetes-easd-2017), we provided you with a short overview of some of the interesting novelties presented during the meeting and, today, we are happy to share with you our own contribution to the conference:

Dr. Leona Plum-Mörschel, our Chief Executive Officer from Profil Mainz, gave an oral presentation about the [“Efficacy and safety of oral basal insulin: eight-week feasibility study in people with type 2 diabetes”](https://www.easd.org/virtualmeeting/home.html#!resources/efficacy-and-safety-of-oral-basal-insulin-eight-week-feasibility-study-in-people-with-type-2-diabetes-cf4ce544-aad5-4fdb-a8b5-787c007e3598) during the session about insulin therapy in type 2 diabetes: novel concepts.

Our Director Project Development/Medical Technology, Dr. Eric Zijlstra, delivered an oral presentation about the [“Effect of food intake on the absorption of oral basal insulin”](https://www.easd.org/virtualmeeting/home.html#!resources/effect-of-food-intake-on-the-absorption-of-oral-basal-insulin-071a102d-22fc-4156-906e-0b5292fba906) during the improvement in insulin therapy session.

In the same session, our Chief Executive Officer, Dr. Christoph Kapitza gave an oral presentation on [“A novel formulation of insulin lispro shows significantly faster absorption and improvement in postprandial glucose excursions versus insulin lispro in patients with type 2 diabetes”](https://www.easd.org/virtualmeeting/home.html#!resources/a-novel-formulation-of-insulin-lispro-shows-significantly-faster-absorption-and-improvement-in-postprandial-glucose-excursions-versus-insulin-lispro-in-patients-with-type-2-diabetes-f1e65d0b-f071-4853-96af-9ed8a019b022).

If you are also interested in the session about Hypoglycemia: treatment and consequences, you can check our ePoster [“Dasiglucagon, a novel soluble glucagon analogue, successfully restores blood glucose levels after hypoglycaemia in people with type 1 diabetes”](https://www.easd.org/virtualmeeting/home.html#!resources/dasiglucagon-a-novel-soluble-glucagon-analogue-successfully-restores-blood-glucose-levels-after-hypoglycaemia-in-people-with-type-1-diabetes-3092aaea-b67e-4490-8245-3fdc545dda81) presented by Dr. Tim Heise, our Lead Scientist.
