Microvascular Complications of Diabetes
Cutting-edge research into the non-atherosclerotic complications of diabetes and aging is being conducted by investigators spanning diverse scientific disciplines. Their work includes studies of the mechanisms leading to damage to organs that are typically considered to be adversely affected by hyperglycemia, the effect of hyperglycemia on wound healing, as well as central and peripheral nervous system changes that occur as a result of and contribute to changes associated with hypoglycemia. Affiliate investigators who use the Diabetes Research Center cores are essential to the success of their research.
