Diabetes is a complex and heterogenous disease and so are the approaches to understand, prevent and cure it.
Research Affinity Groups
For organizational purposes, we have grouped SDRC investigators into four broad research ‘affinity’ areas:
1. Pancreas and Islet Research
2. Metabolism and Signaling in Diabetes
3. Diabetes Immunology, Transplantation & Stem Cells in Diabetes
4. Diabetes Bioengineering & Behavioral Sciences
Investigators are aligned by their interests in insulin signaling, insulin resistance, insulin regulation, islet biology, islet inflammation and transplantation, islet auto- and allo-immunity, improved replacement of islets or insulin in diabetes, and the psychosocial aspects of insulin and glucose regulation. SDRC investigations focus on all forms of diabetes, including type 1, type 2 and type 3c diabetes, and the complications of these. Thus, there are several broad themes that link collaborative multidisciplinary SDRC studies.
