 talk\nIn the age of big administrative datasets\, including those from int
 ervention trials\, there is still an argument for more detailed patient-le
 vel data from community-based cohorts. One such cohort is that from the Fr
 emantle Diabetes Study which was started 30 years ago and which has genera
 ted a wealth of data relating to diabetes management\, complications and c
 ost in a representative urban Australian setting.\n\nAbout Professor Davis
