Focus
- My research focuses on: (a) improving diabetes care by identifying barriers to health care access, and (b) decreasing the morbidity/mortality of diabetic complications by identifying patients at risk (i.e. impaired glucose tolerance [IGT]) and treatment options that may prevent or delay the development of both diabetes and cardiovascular disease.
