About ExCarbs

ExCarbs was first created by Dr. Helen Partridge, Dr. David Kerr, and Professor Michael Riddell as an online self-management resource for individuals living with type 1 diabetes who like to exercise. The latest version has been relaunched by Professor Riddell and Ms. Lauren Turner, a PhD candidate at York University, with support from an Innovation Fellowship and Commercialization Grant from York University in Toronto, Canada.

Founded in 1959, York University is a community united by a strong sense of purpose and dedication to solving real-world problems. York U’s motto is Tentanda Via: The way must be tried.
