Dr Anna Gloyn talks about her research on the genetics of Diabetes.
Genetics and Diabetes
The research undertaken by Dr Anna Gloyn focuses on using naturally genetic variants identified in humans as tools to identify critical regulatory pathways for insulin secretion and action. Current research projects are focused on the translation of genetic association signals for type 2 diabetes and glycaemic traits into molecular mechanisms for diabetes and clinically useful tools.
