News & Events

In this edition, we continue our series of interviews looking at interesting research projects funded by DRWF. Dr Mark Russell tells DRWF’s Claire Levy about research which studies a molecule that controls levels of specific genes and how this influences energy generation and insulin production in Beta cells.

In this edition, Dr Li Kang tells DRWF’s Claire Levy about research which looks at how the outside structure of cells change when they stop responding normally to insulin. This, in turn, alters how insulin works and informs the development of new drugs to help people living with diabetes.

In this edition, Dr Tara Lee tells DRWF’s Claire Levy about research which explores how a mother's glucose levels, and insulin therapy, relate to a baby’s growth patterns and birthweight. It also examined which diabetes technologies help pregnant women to achieve their glucose targets during hospital admissions and after birth.
