The focus of this year's lecture series is on translation: speakers from basic research, epidemiology and/or clinical research present on a common topic and enter into discussion with each other. On October 7, the scientific lecture series will start with a focus on epigenetic inheritance of metabolic diseases with Klaus Kästner (USA), among others. This will be followed on October 12 by Miriam Udler (USA) and Paul Franks (DK) talking about the classification of diabetes subtypes and their significance for precision medicine. The final event on October 14 will focus on dietary approaches in diabetes therapy with presentations by Roy Taylor (UK) and Pam Taub (USA).
A satellite seminar on "Integrated Personalised Diabetes Management" on October 5 will provide insights into current research on healthcare for diabetes patients.
The DZD International Diabetes Research School is the annual highlight of DZD NEXT, the DZD training and education program for young scientists.
