Join Claire Levy as she reports from United Through Diabetes, our leading wellness event for people living with all types of diabetes. Hundreds of delegates met with leading diabetes researchers, healthcare professionals and industry experts to learn about the latest research and innovations related to diabetes.
Claire Levy explores the thorny issue of diabetes Stigma. If you are living with diabetes, you may very well have experienced ignorant, condescending or simply rude comments, not only from the public and even family members, but also possibly professionals who we would hope know better. Stigma can manifest itself in many ways.
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.
