Research
Focus
- Dr. Smileys focus is on ketosis-prone diabetes, also known as atypical diabetes. Her studies aim to correlate clinical response with mechanisms and markers of short- and long-term glycemic remission and to determine the optimal treatment to prevent decompensation. Dr. Smiley also is a co-investigator in several inpatient hyperglycemia studies.
