Funded Activity Summary

My research is directed to the prevention of diabetes, across the spectrum from type 1 to type 2 diabetes. It is based on understanding immune-inflammatory mechanisms that contribute to dysfunction and death of pancreatic insulin-secreting beta cells and tissue resistance to the action of insulin. I study these mechanisms in rodent models and in humans in the context of relevant environmental factors and genes, with the aim of manipulating them for therapeutic benefit.
